Origins
and development
The docks immediately east
of London began to decline in the early 1960s as cargo became containerized.[3]
The opening of the
Tilbury container docks,
further east in
Essex, rendered
them redundant and in 1980 the British government gained control. The
Jubilee line of
the London Underground opened in 1979 from
Stanmore to
Charing Cross as
the first stage of an intended cross-town
tube line beyond
Charing Cross to south-east London.[4]
Although land, as at
Ludgate Circus
and
Lewisham, had
been reserved for the second stage, the rising cost led to the project's
indefinite postponement in the early 1980s.[5]
The
London Docklands Development Corporation
(LDDC), needing to provide public transport cheaply for the former docks area to
stimulate regeneration,[6][7]
considered several proposals and chose a light-rail scheme using surviving dock
railway infrastructure to link the
West India Docks
to
Tower Hill and
to run alongside the Great Eastern lines out of London to a northern terminus at
Stratford
station where a disused bay platform at the west of the station was available
for interchanges with the
Central Line and
main lines. Stratford was preferred to a
Mile End
alternative, which would involve
street running
trams and was at variance with the concept of a fully automated railway. The
growth brought to
Docklands
enabled the
Jubilee Line to
be extended in 1999 to east London by a more southerly route than originally
proposed, through Surrey Quays/Docks,
Canary Wharf and
the
Greenwich Peninsula
(which was the next regeneration area) to Stratford.
was
constructed over three years from 1985 to 1987[9]
at a cost of £77 million to complete.[10]
The line was opened to the public by
Queen Elizabeth II
on 30 July 1987. The first regular passenger services commenced on 31 August of
that year[8]
