Question
There is a clear need for major transport improvement in East London and Greenwich, as well as the Thames Gateway. The Mayor has previously stated that a service upgrade from the currently proposed East London Transit and Greenwich Waterfront Transit would be sought in the future, yet TfL's Director of Strategy contradicted that by telling the Transport Committee in June; "we do not see that there will be an upgrade or a change to a different mode of operation." What is the current thinking on whether an upgrade will be sought?
