We do not hold this information as we do not have any way of recording those who have fare evaded who are not caught. We do however have a record of how many fare evaders who are caught.
The information you have requested for the following questions is held by financial period, not by week as requested. Please note that the figures for 2020/21 were affected by the pandemic, when ridership on the TfL network at times fell to five per cent of pre pandemic levels. During this time Revenue Officers were mainly focused on supporting face covering compliance activity.
If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.
Yours sincerely
Sara Thomas FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
