only assume you don't know the footprint, layout and available

wish to demolish everything to the south of the Royal Docks to the

passengers that a 10-minute frequency on the DLR can comfortably
handle.


You mean almost the same as what they did to build Canary Wharf?
No , I'm sure that would never happen again. Never. Ever.


You've also got the airspace above it congested with the traffic to
exisiting airports. Why do you think that the government, desperately
trying to find somewhere to build new runways in the South East, ruled
out any major expansion of London City?
