And the new bridge leading to Stratford City:
http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showth...544744&page=14 The CGI image shows how it will look. The current entrance to Stratford Station will be much larger and to the right will be steps leading to the bridge over the overland and Central Line tracks to Stratford City. The DLY extension runs above. Amazing photos. |

The DLY extension runs above. Amazing photos. Interesting collection of photos - but note that the DLR extension emphatically does not run above anything, it runs beneath it! Specifically the DLR extension from Canning Town to Stratford Int'l uses the old North London Line alignment up to and then through Stratford Regional station - it'll be where the low-level NLL platforms used to be (i.e. cutting through the main concourse), though I understand the DLR will actually have platforms a teeny-weeny bit to the south of the NLL platforms for some reason. The wide new pedestrian bridge that leads into the Westfield Stratford City development (and on into the Olympic Park) is now two-thirds in place - the most recent third was put in place during the three day railway possession over the May day bank holiday, and the last bit will be go in during a railway possession in July I think. |

Sorry, what's the line running above the entrance to Stratford Regional in the CGI photo? It confused me, a whole area of London is being opened up, and it was a complete toilet before- breakers' yards and fridge mountains. |

This is the somewhat fuzzy CGI image* in question: http://mizter.t.googlepages.com/Stra...bridge_CGI.jpg I agree with Mr Thant - it appears to just be a continuation of the pedestrian bridge, though I'm not really up on what the plans for this bridge link actually are. One can however say for absolutely certain that it's not a railway line of any sort! By the by, if you go to Stratford station you'll be able to see work progressing on converting the old NLL alignment for DLR operation from the overbridge within the big 'hall' (that contains the concourse). ----- *Can one legitimately say Computer Generated Imagery Image? |
