Future developments
The North London line platforms will be redeveloped as part of the Stratford International extension of the DLR from Canning Town to Stratford International via West Ham, which would see more frequent services to Stratford, and will connect London Underground to DLR at West Ham, so passengers to NLL destinations beyond will have to change.
On the DLR City Airport extension there is a station planned south-east of here called Thames Wharf, depending mainly on the regeneration of the area.
