BusinessLDN consultation response - Extending the DLR to Beckton Riverside and Thamesmead

BusinessLDN welcomes the opportunity to respond to TfL’s consultation on extending the DLR to Beckton Riverside and Thamesmead. 

We urge the Government to give the green light to the scheme without delay. The project has overwhelming local support, could unlock 30,000 new homes, create 10,000 new jobs, and drive inclusive growth. It is projected to add £15bn to the UK economy.
