I’ve been making the case for cross-channel rail services from Stratford International for many years and I’m hoping that our efforts are close to paying off.
International services would help unlock a new chapter for East London with the potential to generate an additional £1.3bn in tourist spending for the UK. https://t.co/JifOfNQgy2
New @TfL DLR train - they’re modern inside and classic outside. More air, more room, more space and a little bit seaside-y. @MayorofLondon@dlr_london@SebDance
Stratford is one of Europe’s great regeneration success stories. It’s ready for its next chapter - European rail links.
We've been working closely with this new Government to make Stratford International truly ‘international’ for the first time ⬇️
