Dear sir/madam, I am writing to you to make a Freedom of Information request. I would like to request information about the number of riders on the bus routes 48 and 242 for September 2014 to the most recently available. I would like the information to be broken into the number of tap-ins for each individual stop on both routes. These should be separated for each direction the route takes (north to south and south to north). I would like the information to be displayed as monthly figures over the period. I would like separately the amount of fares taken on those routes (separated into individual stops, if possible). I would like the data for the 48 and 242 bus routes to be displayed on separate sheets. If the data could be sent in a csv or xls spreadsheet, that would be ideal.
