Date published: 06 January 2020
You asked
I am requesting some information through the Freedom of Information Act. Please could you inform me of the following:
• The number of parking tickets issued for both on-street parking and car parks controlled by London borough councils or Transport for London between 1 January 2018 and 31 December 2018.
• How many of the parking tickets issued by London councils/TfL between 1 January and 31 December 2018 were appealed?
• How many of those parking ticket appeals have, as of 1 December 2019, been successfully upheld?
If possible, I would like the information just as a simple figure to answer each question (rather than a list of tickets or locations, for example).
