LONDON CITY AIRPORT was again in the news last week with the Docklands
Light Railway (DLR) moving its one-millionth passenger since the
extension from Canning Town was opened last December. The LCY ” DLR
success is proof, if its is needed, that one way to get airport
traffic off the road is to provide some kind of mass people mover
transportation. Since March the dedicated bus services from Canary
Wharf and Liverpool Street have been discontinued but the popular free
car valet service for the short stay car park has been retained.
According to managing director Richard Gooding there has been a
reduction in taxi use of the airport and car parking has declined in
spite of a 16.4% rise in passenger numbers since this time last year.
