Brief Description

Oyster card overcharging data 2010 for London Underground stations only

Detailed Information

The data shows the amount overcharged on Oyster Cards for 2010 for London Underground stations only. National Rail and Docklands Light Railway stations are in separate datasets. Where a National Rail or DLR station is shown on this map, it will be for an interchange station and the figures are for passengers exiting through the London Underground exit only.

The data is taken from the TfL document which was passed to BBC London News and made available for download on their website at the following link:

The station locations come from the KML dataset downloaded from the London Datastore, which was missing the Wood Lane station. The location for this station was obtained from wikimedia and added manually. For some of the stations in the TfL overcharging data, a single value is listed where a station is split geographically, for example Heathrow is split with terminals 1,2 and 3 at one location and terminal 4 at another location. In this situation, the single overcharging figure is duplicated for both locations.

One anomaly in the TfL document appears to be West Hampstead which is listed as "WHampstead LU" and "West Hampstead" with figures of 44,000 and 31,000 respectively.
