Ratings and Reviews

App stuck and can't purchase tickets.

I was able to make a purchase of one ticket which several times to do before it finally submitted. When I tried to do another purchase, I clicked tickets, picked my time and then hit buy now and kept being taken back to the results from my previous purchase. Tried refreshing, reload downloading the app and neither of that worked. Giving up on the app

It is impossible to delete or remove a ticket added to the basket. Worst experience.

Worst App Ever

I do t know where to begin. I would say that monkeys wrote this app, but that would be an insult to monkeys. When you click on 'tickets' to purchase your tickets, the app rarely finds a route even though the app itself has selected a route to and from your destination. After the app says it cannot find a route, it wants you to re-enter your travel info on a completely different screen. Once you do so, the app hangs and you have to exit the app and start this loop all over again. If, by some miracle, you advance after you click the tickets button to put in your seat preferences, etc., once you enter your email address and click "continue as guest", the app hangs. Why yes, I have tried registering. The app does not think my phone number is legitimate, which means you cannot register. I am trying to buy round trip tickets to Exeter. The app has been hung for the last 34 minutes. In 10 days (I installed the app 10 days ago), I have only been able to purchase tickets once. Horrible piece of work.

TfL’s new DLR timetable promises quicker and easier journeys

Posted: 7 September 2022 | Intelligent Transport | No comments yet

The new DLR timetable will mean more frequent services will run for longer in the evening and on weekends, supporting an increase in leisure travel and helping to reduce waiting times across Docklands and east London.

Credit: Transport for London

Transport for London (TfL) has announced that customers will benefit from quicker, easier and more comfortable journeys across the DLR network with the introduction of a new timetable from 26 September 2022. The changes will help people access housing, employment and leisure opportunities more easily across Docklands and east London.

Since the opening of the Elizabeth line in May 2022 and with people travelling to the office and leisure activities more frequently, the way customers use the DLR has changed. The new timetable will help ensure there are more trains available where people need them.

The new timetable will mean more frequent services will run for longer in the evening and on weekends, supporting an increase in leisure travel. The changes also help minimise interchange waiting times with the Elizabeth line at Canary Wharf, Custom House and Stratford stations – making journeys across the city even quicker. 

All DLR routes will benefit from more frequent services, helping to reduce waiting times and minimise crowding, especially at the busiest times.

Tom Page, TfL’s General Manager for the DLR, said: “It is fantastic to see customers regularly using the DLR again and we want to make sure the timetable provides the best possible service. The changes will help our customers complete their journeys more quickly and easily.”

Long-term UK government settlement agreed with Transport for London

Main service changes

Stratford to canary wharf.

Weekday peak services will run every four minutes rather than the current six to seven minutes, while daytime and early evening services will run every five minutes rather than every ten minutes.

Stratford to Lewisham via Canary Wharf

Every other train from Stratford, during weekday morning peak services, will continue to Lewisham providing a service every two to four minutes between Canary Wharf and Lewisham.

Canning Town to Beckton

The Canning Town to Beckton shuttle is being re-introduced during the off-peak and being introduced for the first time during the peak. The shuttle will complement existing services, which means a service will operate on the route every four minutes during the morning and evening weekday peaks, currently every eight minutes, and every five minutes during off-peak daytimes throughout the week.

Improved services in the evening and at weekends

The timetable change will mean more frequent services will run for longer in the evening and on weekends. 

Further improvements will be made across the DLR network , including modern, walk-through, air-conditioned trains, which are due to enter service from 2024. These will provide further significant improvements to waiting times, crowding and customer experience, as well as supporting housing growth and economic re-development across the Docklands and east London.

Map of the Docklands Light Railway (DLR line)

Welcome to the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) line map website.  

DLR Line maps

Below is the map showing the stations.

→ Click map to zoom ←

The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) serves the east of the city of London, and although it's a 'light rail' and not a tube, since it's not entirely underground and its tracks do not directly connect with other tube lines, they use the same tickets and appear on tube maps anyway.

A curiosity about this line is that the trains are driverless, but there is always a 'passenger service agent' (PSA) who ensures that everything runs smoothly, and who can take control of the train in an emergency.

Construction of this line began in 1980 as a way of regenerating the East London docks, which had been in decline since the 1960s. Initially, it was meant to be a tramway, but the plans evolved due to a significant increase in passenger numbers, and gradually new stations and sub-lines were added, making the line map a bit more complicated.

Although it looks like a spider web of routes on the map, it actually covers these four routes:

• Bank to Lewisham.
• Tower Gateway to Beckton.
• Stratford to Lewisham.
• Bank to King George V.

The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) is one of the most heavily used lines in the London tube network. In 2013, it averaged 101 million passengers annually. However, by the financial year 2022/23, passenger numbers on the DLR had reached 92.3 million, reflecting ongoing high usage and the dynamic nature of public transportation in London.

List of DLR line stations and routes

The DLR currently operates 5 different routes. Before boarding, ensure to carefully check the destination sign at the front of the train to avoid boarding the wrong service.

Clicking on a station name provides real-time timetable information and additional details. Clicking on the line icons reveals information about that line, including transfer options.

DLR Passengers to see quicker, easier and more frequent journeys as services are boosted across the network

Further DLR timetable changes will be introduced from Monday 15 May, enabling customers to benefit from quicker, easier and more comfortable journeys across the DLR network. These improvements build on the timetable changes that were made in September last year designed to help people access housing, employment and leisure opportunities more easily across the Docklands and east London. 

Since the opening of the Elizabeth line last May, and with people travelling to the office and leisure activities more frequently, the way customers use the DLR has changed. These new timetables will help ensure there are more trains available where people need them.    

The new timetable will mean more frequent services on all routes, especially at peak times, helping to reduce waiting times as well as providing better connections with the Elizabeth line at Canary Wharf, Custom House and Stratford. Peak services will run half an hour longer on all routes in both the morning and evening peaks with customers benefiting from more frequent services and reduced waiting during these times. The Elizabeth line will also have a new timetable introduced in May, which will increase peak time services for customers and reduce journey times. 

In response to growing customer demand, additional services are being introduced such as direct Stratford to Lewisham trains during the evening peak for the first time. Evening frequencies between Canning Town and Beckton will also be doubled, with Stratford to Canary Wharf services doubled on Saturday nights.   

The main changes include:  

• Peak service levels will run half an hour longer on all routes in both morning and evening peaks . This means customers on all routes will benefit from more frequent services and reduced waiting times during peak times. The morning peak service will end at 10:00 instead of 09:30, and the evening peak service will end at 19:30 instead of 19:00.  
• Direct Stratford-Lewisham services during the evening peak will be introduced for the first time . Customers will benefit from the extension of every other Stratford to Canary Wharf service to/from Lewisham during the evening peak, cutting waiting times for customers between Canary Wharf and Lewisham. This means a service every two to four minutes between Canary Wharf and Lewisham instead of every four minutes, and direct services between Stratford and Lewisham (without changing trains at Canary Wharf) every eight minutes.  
• Frequencies between Canning Town and Beckton on Monday to Saturday evenings will be doubled.  In September, a shuttle service between Canning Town and Beckton (in addition to the existing Tower Gateway to Beckton services) was introduced, which doubled the frequency during the peaks and daytime off peak. With the new timetable, these services will continue into the evening until 23:30 on weekdays (instead of 19:30) and 22:00 on Saturdays (instead of 19:30). This means during these times trains will run every five minutes rather than every 10 minutes between Canning Town and Beckton, halving waiting times for customers (including those interchanging to/from the Elizabeth line at Custom House). There is no change to service levels on Sundays.  
• Frequencies doubled between Stratford and Canary Wharf on Saturday evenings.  Customers using stations between Stratford and Canary Wharf on Saturday evenings will wait substantially less time for a train, with trains every five minutes (rather than 10) until 22:00 rather than until 19:30.  

Seb Dance, deputy mayor for transport said: “After some incredibly challenging years, ridership on the Tube and DLR is beginning to return to pre-pandemic levels, And I am pleased that changes coming in to the DLR timetable in May will mean people travelling around east London will now benefit from additional services and quicker, easier, more frequent journeys.  

“With the entire DLR fleet also being updated over the coming years, this is just one of the ways the Mayor and TfL are continuing to improve London’s world-class public transport network, which is key for to building a better, more efficient London for everyone.” 

Tom Page, TfL’s General Manager for the DLR, said: “It’s an exciting time for DLR as we continue to see strong ridership and have now begun testing of the new trains that will transform journeys for millions of customers every year. This latest timetable change builds on last September’s changes to help ensure we have capacity where it’s needed the most. These changes will deliver an improvement for customers with quicker, easier and more comfortable journeys.” 

This is the next step in a programme of enhancements for the DLR. New modern, walk-through, air-conditioned DLR trains are currently being tested on the network and are due to enter service from 2024. These will provide further significant improvements to waiting times, crowding and customer experience as they allow   longer and more frequent trains to operate, as well as supporting housing growth and economic redevelopment across the Docklands and east London. 

Full details of the timetable changes can be found at  tfl.gov.uk/modes/dlr/improving-the-dlr . Customers can also plan journeys using the new timetables using the TfL Go app or TfL Journey Planner.
