Development To The West Of The North Entrance Of The Silvertown Tunnel

This Google Map shows the site to the West of the North entrance of the Silvertown Tunnel.

Note.

1. The red arrow indicates City Hall.
2. There is a large site between the DLR and the river.
3. The Docklands Light Railway separates the site from the North entrance of the Silvertown Tunnel.
4. The CEMEX Thames Aggregate Wharf seems to occupy part of the site.

This picture shows the North entrance of the Silvertown Tunnel from the cable-car.

It is surely a site with development potential, as Roy Brooks would say.

It will probably be used for more tower blocks along the Thames.

But could it be used for a coach station to handle the increasing number of coaches between London and the Continent?

• A Docklands Light Railway station could be built to serve the site.
• Thames Clippers could also serve the site.
• Coaches could use the Silvertown Tunnel to  start their journey out of the capital.

I added these pictures, that were taken of the site from the Docklands Light Railway, a day later.

The site certainly has development potential.
