Default Danglebahn usage statistics


It needs to be better integrated into London's transport network. One
way to start this is by charging a more realistic fare, rather than the
premiums they have going now.


I don't understand how it was ever considered to be a commute option -
where would they be going to work?

Like (probably) everyone else, I have taken my 2 year old on it as
something different to do on a Sunday morning - he loves it (and indeed,
I think it's terrific in the same way I think the London Eye is terrific)
- but if you're going to be commuting on it, it has to be something that
really saves you time - and the only way I can imagine someone would save
time over and above getting the DLR to Canning Town and onto the Jubilee,
would be if you lived directly opposite the entrance on the eastern side,
and worked in the Dome.

I cannot believe it EVER stood up to any scrutiny as potential for
commuting.
