It needs to be used with caution. For instance, if you use ticket machine data for D&G's 88 service it doesn't tell you how many people use the Wilmslow station stop so you can't use ticket machine data to determine whether that stop could be omitted. However, it would tell you how many people travel between Mobberley and Wilmslow or beyond which might be useful for planning alternative arrangements if part of the B5085 is closed for a week due to roadworks.
