The Cables on the Emirates Air-Line Are Up
These pictures taken from both sides of the Thames, show that the cables for the Emirates Air-Line are now in place.
I should think that it’ll be there sooner than many people think. You can just see the cables on one of the pictures taken from Greenwich.
The Royal Docks Terminal of the Emirates Air-Line
These pictures are a few bad ones of the new Royal Docks terminal of the Emirates Air-Line.
It looks like that once the fences come down, it will look a lot better. The line will also give a new route to the O2 and spectacular views of London.
The terminal is a short walk from Royal Victoria station on the Docklands Light Railway.
Note that since the original post, I’ve added a few pictures of the intermediate cable towers. These pictures were either taken from or around West Silvertown station or from the top deck of a 474 bus, which runs from Canning Town station along the line of Docklands Light Railway to London City Airport and further to the east.
A Good Safety Slogan
I took this picture on the site of the Royal Docks terminal of the new Emirates Air-Line.
It’s so obvious, I’m surprised I’ve not seen it before.
The Emirates Air-Line Progresses
I took some pictures a few weeks ago of the Emirates Air-Line before. But they were in the dark.
These ones are much better.
The Emirates Air-Line
This is the cable car over the Thames sponsored by Emirates.
Construction has started on the south bank of the river by the O2.
This cable car has been talked about for many years and it looks like it will finally be built.
