Overall Rating

Good

An accessible transport hub to change between the Jubilee Line and the DLR.

Disabled Access In and Around

Good

There are lifts to connect you from the ticket office, DLR and Jubilee Line. My best suggestion is to ask one of the staff who will either point you in the right direction or escort you. Getting on the Tube was described as step free. It's not quite as there is a bit of a gap and a height difference. I'd describe it as being similar to going up a small kerb - the trick for me was to keep moving. When getting on look out for the wheelchair spaces - they're marked with a wheelchair logo.

Parking & Transport

Good

Quite a hub of transport as it's DLR station and underground.

Accessible Toilets

Bad

Didn't notice any but I wasn't looking so there may be one but I doubt it.

Staff

Excellent

Excellent - staff were quick to offer assistance.

Additional Information

The Jubilee Line worked well for me to connect with the DLR.
