We are thrilled to announce that Keolis Group and Amey have been named the new franchisee of the DLR in London for the next franchise, for an initial term of eight years starting on 1 April 2025.
This continues the success story of the KeolisAmey Docklands contract which has been in place since December 2014. Combining the global expertise of Keolis and Amey, we operate and maintain the DLR, delivering industry-leading levels of performance and award-winning service for our customers and local communities.
We’re honoured to be continuing our journey on the busiest light rail network in the UK and look forward to partnering with Transport for London for what promises to be an exciting time for the DLR. With 54 new trains coming into service, enhancements to our timetables to accommodate this and further improvements to our maintenance operations, we will ensure the network continues to grow for all who use the DLR.
Richard Graham, Managing Director of KeolisAmey Docklands, said: “Our focus on delivering service excellence for our customers and community will remain at the heart of all that we do as we work in partnership to support Transport for London’s vision of safe, sustainable transport for London. Enriching the customer experience and delivering improved capacity for the Docklands area of east London, we look forward to ensuring the DLR remains the driver for continued growth and the heartbeat for our local communities.”
