In October 2002, over 80,000 leaflets were mailed to local residents living within the catchment of the Bank-Lewisham route and to passengers using key interchange stations to ensure DLR received views from the widest spectrum of users possible. Over 3,500 responses were received, of which over 90% were in favour of the proposals to increase capacity with longer trains. Exhibitions of the proposals were open to the public at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich and St Georges Town Hall in Shadwell.
A second round of consultation was undertaken in early 2004, with exhibitions at Cabot Hall in Canary Wharf, The Forum in Greenwich and Lewisham Town Hall.
