DLR: Big push for Dagenham branch to be constructed ahead of 2012
Yeah the problem with a Bakerloo extension is that it would abstract
revenue from buses and trains in the area so the sums dont stack up as well as the (mainly) green/brownfield DLR which generates completley new journeys with little abstraction from other public transport. (Only exception being the line to North woolwich which will replace NR line but I guess serving the airport tipped the balance here) However the traffic along the Walworth road is now so bad for buses these days, I think if the sums were run again adding in the congestion reduction benefits we would see a better outcome. |
