Extending the docklands light railway to Beckton riverside and Thamesmead

We welcome the opportunity to respond to TfL’s public consultation on the proposal to extend the Docklands Light Railway (DLR).

The proposed DLR extension plans would significantly improve local transport connectivity and wider connectivity in London and, similarly, help support the construction of thousands of new homes, including affordable homes, which are needed both locally and across the capital. Overall, the extension would deliver strong local and regional benefits and help drive economic growth.
