DLR TO RUN ENHANCED SERVICES DURING LONDON BOAT SHOW
Docklands Light Railway – Sunday 13th January 2008

The Docklands Light Railway are running an enhanced service between 11th and 20th January to cater for the Collins Stewart London Boat Show being held at ExCeL London. This service has been designed to meet anticipated passenger flows and ensures visitors can travel to and from the event as quickly as possible. Read on for details on the service.

There will be more trains running towards Custom House for ExCeL with an average 5 minute frequency between Canning Town and Prince Regent stations in peak times. For any regular passengers there will be some minor frequency changes to services between Bank and Canary Wharf on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th January. The advice is that you should take the first train available and change as necessary.

Additional customer services staff will be located at key locations to advise and direct visitors on their way to and from the event. Crowd control staff will manage the boarding and alighting of passengers at busy stations.
