I feel duty bound to say that the DLR came about because Thatcher was trying to cheap out on a jubilee extention and that there's been much more cost since the initial cost to bring it up to the current level of operation.

That's not overtly a criticism perhaps a cheaper MVP that you can get over the line politically and upgrade along the way might be the right way to do it but I wonder if it would have been cheaper to do it at the start
