TRAM LINE

Brief details are given of the proposed London docklands light rail scheme, completion of which is due in 1987. It will use one of London's oldest railways which has been derelict since the Second World War. Trains will run from a new station at Tower Hill next to the Tower of London, down through docklands to the bottom end of the Isle of Dogs, opposite Greenwich hospital. A branch will run to Stratford Broadway. The whole scheme can be built for L77 million. (TRRL)
