Mr. Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if there are any plans to extend the docklands light railway into the London borough of Southwark; and if he will make a statement.

There are no current plans for such an extension. LRT, with the London Docklands development corporation and British Rail, is examining various possible improvements in rail transport for the London borough of Southwark, including a possible extension of the east London line to Peckham.
