Delighted to join partners at Surrey Quays this week to mark the opening of the station's new entrance and ticket hall. As well as making the station fully step-free, the upgrade will help support the thousands of new homes and jobs coming to the area. ♿🚉

Today TfL published the results of the third consultation on the extension of the DLR from Thamesmead to Beckton Riverside, showing strong public support of this vital project, which could unlock new homes and jobs, and boost growth across London and beyond. Read the report here: bit.ly/4AYVOX6

More homes. More jobs. Better connections. The West London Orbital has the potential to transform travel across west London while helping tackle congestion and improve air quality. 👇

Spacious walk-through carriages, live travel information, air conditioning: new DLR trains are in service. These state-of-the-art trains will transform journeys for millions of Londoners across east and south London, with extra capacity to support new homes and jobs.
