Docklands Light Railway

The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) is a light rail system in London, primarily serving the city's Docklands area. Opened in 1987, it was designed to support the redevelopment of former industrial sites into residential and commercial areas. The DLR operates driverless trains on elevated tracks and provides a modern, efficient transportation option connecting key locations like Canary Wharf, Greenwich, and the City of London. It is integral to London's public transport network, offering a seamless link to the Underground, rail services, and river transport, contributing to the region's economic growth and accessibility.
