Chris Grayling, SoS for Transport, signed off the Transport and Works Act Order, for the extension of the Barking - Gospel Oak service to
Barking Riverside, last week.

Decision letter - https://www.gov.uk/government/public...order-decision

Inspector's report - https://www.gov.uk/government/public...pectors-report

Does this mean that construction can now start, or are there more
stages and hurdles to pass?

One of the biggest: can TfL actually raise the funds (or even still wish
to raise the funds) to do the work, now that they have "planning
permission" to do the work?

Is it TfL or NR that raises the finds to build the track?

Inside London such projects are traditionally TfL's hat being passed
around.
