Greenwich Council has reaffirmed its backing for an extension of the DLR to Thamesmead as it prepares for major growth in the east of the borough.
It comes months after TfL confirmed to councillors it was investigating the extension under City Hall’s planning framework.
Greenwich Council has thrown its weight behind extending the line from Becton to Thamesmead to support the thousands of new homes planned.
Pippa Hack, the council’s director of regeneration, enterprise and skills, said: “It is vital that we can assess what infrastructure is required alongside residential and employment uses.
