Transport is one of the real strengths of London's
bid for the 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. The Olympic
Park will be the most accessible in the history of the Games
with the jewel in the crown of transport plans undoubtedly
being the Olympic Javelin.
The Olympic Transport team at Transport for London have been
working for two years to give London a strong plan that will
deliver excellent Olympic transport.
It currently has nine separate railways lines
that serve the Olympic Park and the tenth the Channel Tunnel
Rail Link (CTRL) is already undergoing construction and due
for completion in 2007. At Games time it will deliver 240,000
passengers an hour with a train arriving every 15 seconds.
Investment has already provided new buses,
new or refurbished tube trains and the extensive Docklands
Light Railway. Almost all the transport infrastructure related
to the Games is underway and will be completed by mid 2010.
