Mr. Norris

The information requested is shown in the tables.

Trains in customer service (Percentage of scheduled trains running at peak hours3) Train service headways (Timed interval between trains) Train delays over 20 minutes (London Underground Limited attributable and non-attributable causes)
Four weeks ending Performance Per cent. Target Per cent. Performance Per cent. Target Per cent. Performance Target
