The DLR railway has been on strike yesterday (Wed 28 Mar) and today (Thu 29 Mar). Apart from its own inconvenience, particularly for pax, it has also led to gross traffic congestion from those diverting to taxis or driving. The solid jammed traffic stretches right back along the approach road and around the surrounding approaches. It goes right back along North Woolwich Road and across the dock bridge which passes under the 09 approach. Yesterday it was taking an EXTRA hour to get from these points to the terminal. Pax could be seen abandoning taxis and struggling with baggage along the road to the terminal.
