Default Canning Town - Stratford DLR fares

I was searching the TfL fare finder for a fare across town for tonight
and I noticed that the new DLR stations between Canning Town and
Stratford International have been entered in to the fares system.

But still no word on when it is going to open. I started a post on
this subject a while ago, and the consensus was around the end of
February. But I haven't seen any announcements, and the Tfl website
now says "Late Spring 2011", which could mean anytime between now and
the end of May.

Surely 'now' is not late spring?

There was an update in the last TfL board papers which indicated there
had been a delay. See page 5, section 3.2 of

http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloa...ers-Report.pdf

and page 59 of

http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloa...rd-OPF-IPR.pdf

I think we just have to wait and see how things progress.

Well, there's little else we can do really! (Unless we're one of the
contractors I s'pose... but even then there's no magic wand.)
