Funding boost for DLR extension to Thamesmead is 'a huge step forward'
Briefly

Transport for London (TfL) has been awarded funding to extend the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) into Thamesmead, which is a significant advancement for local transportation. Greenwich council emphasizes the importance of this extension, predicting it will improve air quality, create approximately 10,000 new homes, and pave the way for job creation in the area. The project is anticipated to have a transformative effect similar to that of the Elizabeth line in Woolwich. The council advocates for sustainable travel and plans additional measures to encourage greener transportation options throughout the borough.
We know we need to clean up our air and make it easier, greener and safer to move around the borough.
The DLR extension could have a transformative effect, similar to the impact the Elizabeth line has had in Woolwich.
From installing new cycle hangars and improving our cycle network... we're making it as easy as possible to get around Royal Greenwich.
If we can make it easier for more people to switch to cleaner ways of getting around, then that's a win-win.
