The new station will be built near the existing Stratford station which has Tube and rail links. The first stone of an international railway station that is expected to regenerate London's East End has been laid on Tuesday. news.bbc.co.uk /1/hi/england/london/3559383.stm

Telegraph News 140 mph trains will take fans to heart of the action Stratford International will be one of three stations serving the Olympic Park, complementing the existing Stratford Tube station and that at West Ham. Another stretch linking Stratford International to Canning Town is due to open in 2010. One of the key planks in London's bid was the pledge of massive investment in transport, which will lead to the building of about 50 stations, three rail lines and the extension of three others. www.telegraph.co.uk /news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/07/07/nolym607.xml

Introduction & Benefits The CTRL will pass the station on the north side of the existing lines with junctions to the west and east of the station that will enable international trains to benefit from reduced journey times to continental destinations and to London for passengers on new domestic trains. Ashford International Station was envisaged at the time the Channel Tunnel Bill was being considered in 1985. As well being the international railhead for the south and south east, Ashford will be served by new CTRL domestic trains once the new line is open through to St Pancras in 2007. www.ctrl.co.uk /english/introduction/ashford.htm

Plans Announced For Three New Dlr Stations In The Area (from This Is Local London) The new stations will be built at Stratford Market, Abbey Lane and Stratford International when DLR takes over part of the North London Silverlink line in 2009. The current DLR platforms at Stratford station would have to be expanded under the plans by ten to 15 metres to improve accessibility. Old station buildings at Stratford Market will be reused under the plans, but local councillors are worried about the problem of fitting new DLR platforms in the confined space. thisislocallondon.co.uk /news/topstories/display.var.547952.0.plans_announced_for_three_new_dlr_station...

The Stratford route At the moment DLR uses the previously unused platform 4 at Stratford as a terminus but there are plans to expand the line by about 400 metres to Stratford International station.

Encyclopedia: Canning Town station A planned extension of the Docklands Light Railway from Canning Town to Stratford International station via West Ham would see the removal of North London Line services from Canning Town, and their replacement by Docklands Light Rail trains on a more frequent service. The interchange is situated on a north-south alignment, constrained by Bow Creek immdediately to the west, Silvertown Way to the east, a major east-west road bridge crossing the throat of the station to the north, and the River Thames to the south. The first station along this route from Canning Town will be West Silvertown. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Canning-Town-station

london geezer Some are already in the process of being transformed into Stratford International station, immediately to the east of the proposed stadium, and ever so convenient for (ahem) all those eager Parisian visitors to the 2012 Games. Stratford's new Eurostar station is planned to be at the heart of a billion pound regeneration scheme, bringing new homes and a huge metropolitan, business and retail centre to the area. The inhabitants of nearby Stratford wait expectantly to see whether this new water feature will be full of international champions breaking world records or just teenagers divebombing one another and urinating in the shallow end when they think nobody's looking. lndn.blogspot.com /2005_07_01_lndn_archive.html

Transport Plans for the London Area - East A new station was at one time planned between Stratford and Stratford International at Carpenters Road: this was removed by September 2000. An extra 3 stations might be built between Canning Town and Stratford (to be served by the DLR only, not by the adjacent Jubilee Line): one south of West Ham at Cody Road, and two north of West Ham at Abbey Road and Stratford Market. By December 1999, the Thames Wharf station (200 metres southwest of the eastern end of the Lower Lea Crossing) was described as an enhancement to be built at a later date: this is because development around the station is restricted by government safeguarding for the Blackwall Tunnel improvements. www.geocities.com /Athens/Acropolis/7069/tpftla_e.html

Docklands Light Railway - Development Projects - Stratford International - Project Updates Existing North London line stations at Canning Town, West Ham and Stratford would be modified and a new station will be opened at Stratford International, which will be the main rail interchange from Eurostar into the TfL network. The TWA would secure the powers needed to build the extension, which will run from Canning Town to integrate with the CTRL station at Stratford International, due to be finished by late 2009 in good time for a successful London 2012 Olympics. The planned extension of the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) to Stratford International took an important step forward today as the TfL Board approved plans for DLR to submit an application for a Transport and Works Act (TWA) Order. developments.dlr.co.uk /extensions/stratford/details.asp?id=19

gedrivers.co.uk - Read message Very interestingly he implied that the entire distance between the current Stratford station and International was to be developed as a shopping mall, but refused to confirm that there would be a decent means of getting between the two, i.e travelator, or even a direct walking route. Some years ago a travelator was talked about between Stratford and the international station, but no doubt the price has gone up since then. Seems that the only reason that International was built was because Newham Council got them by the short and curlies by saying no International Station no premission to move spoil from the tunneling in their area. www.gedrivers.co.uk /index.php?page=read&post=246

News Existing plans for regeneration around Stratford, such as the International Station, improvements to the transport infrastructure and the Rail Lands development, will all contribute to making London’s bid for the 2012 Olympics a very persuasive one. For Stratford, this news is potentially of the greatest importance as the proposed Olympic stadium, the Olympics village and many new sporting facilities would be located in the Lower Lea Valley and around Stratford. For Stratford business women, there is now the opportunity to take part in monthly networking lunches, arranged by Fiona Ross, of Women's Junction. www.futurestratford.com /news.php?newsID=5

dli2 2000 There is a rail station at Birmingham International and the journey to Stratford-upon-Avon takes about 1hr 40 mins with a change at either Birmingham New Street or Leamington Spa. The Stratford Moat House is situated on the banks of the the River Avon, just on the edge of the town centre and just down the road from the Royal Shakespeare theatre. There are also direct National Express coaches from Heathrow to Stratford, but only two a day and the timings do not work to get people to the conference in time if you are arriving on the 12th June. www.dli2.nsf.gov /ukworkshop/allprojects2000.html

alwaystouchout.com - DLR to Stratford International At Stratford Regional (the station serving all existing routes, as opposed to the forthcoming International station), the DLR would use the current NLL low-level platforms adjacent to the Jubilee Line, and would then run alongside the current NLL to the western end of Stratford International station, which is located some distance from the Regional station. Extending to Stratford International would involve disruptive tunnelling work and a new station at Stratford Regional; the NLL takeover plan uses the NLL platforms (and the NLL would be diverted to the existing Lea Valley line platforms). There is potential for this route to be further extended from Stratford International to Temple Mills in the future, should new developments warrant it. www.alwaystouchout.com /project/45
