Bicycles allowed on DLR trains

Submitted by owen on 17 January 2014

Great news from TfL, bikes allowed on off-peak DLR trains. It's been a long wait for this!

"Transport for London (TfL) is pleased to announce that, following a successful trial, non-folding bicycles are now permitted on off-peak Docklands Light Railway (DLR) trains on an ongoing basis.

Over 5,000 bikes and their cyclists travelled on the DLR during the trial period, which ran between July 2013 and January 2014. Evidence from their successful carriage has been used to demonstrate that it is appropriate to continue this policy permanently.
