Thank you for your request of 13th February 2019 asking for London Underground entry and exit data for 2018, along with projections for entry and exit data on Elizabeth Line stations.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we hold some of the information you require.

In relation to the first part of your question, we do not currently hold a spreadsheet of data for 2018 due to a change in the methodology for compiling the data. We are producing a brand new dataset which will include demand data for all rail modes, and we have spent several months working on getting the 2017 version ready for release. This will be published soon. The 2018 version will then be worked on and will be published later in the year.  

In relation to your question on the Elizabeth Line, the following table shows the forecast number of entries and exits at stations in 2021:
