====Docklands Light Railway extension====
[[Transport for London]] (TfL) are currently considering the extension of the [[Docklands Light Railway]] from [[Lewisham]] to [[Bromley]], with the first phase being from [[Lewisham]] to Catford. So far TfL have not expressed a preferred route, provided detailed plans, or indicated costs and funding. [[Lewisham Council]] has suggested that any route should be underground to reduce physical and visual impact.{{citation needed|date=May 2015}}
