If this is not the information you are looking for please feel free to contact me.

With regard to your e-mail of 8 February 2018 querying the missing data on 8 and 9 December 2017, the data held for those two days was corrupted and we are unable to retrieve it. As per my e-mail of 9 February, with regard to this question, ‘In 2014 we received passenger counts by time at each station (see attached document). Is it possible to get this data as well or not?’ I am still awaiting the confirmation of the time period you would like this information for.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
