“I would like to request information about the total number of reported crimes on each underground line per week between weeks 28/09/20 - 08/11/20. Please would you be able to give a total number of crimes for each day of the week.”

TfL does not hold the requested information. This data is held by the British Transport Police (BTP). While the BTP do pass such data to TfL, we have not yet been passed data for the period in question. You can submit a Freedom of Information request directly to the BTP via its website here:

Note that TfL publishes a regular crime bulletin that may be of interest to you - published online here:

If you are considering submitting a further FOI request please think carefully about whether the request is essential at this current time, as answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. Where requests are made, please note that our response time may be impacted by the current situation.
