Building an Urban Railway -- 30 Years of the DLR

打造一条都市轨道——DLR30年历程

The Docklands Light Railway, known as DLR, is a driverless automated light metro system that was designed to rejuvenate the Docklands area of London.

伦敦码头区的轻轨铁路(DLR)是一种无人驾驶的自动化轻型地铁系统,旨在使伦敦码头区焕发出新的活力。

A low-cost alternative to extending London’s underground network, the half train/half tram, has surpassed all expectations, rapidly expanding to become a vital part of the city’s transport infrastructure. Opening in 1987 with 11 trains servicing 15 stations, the DLR has since spread across east London and now has 145 trains connecting 45 stations.

半火车/半电车是扩展伦敦地下网络的一种低成本替代方案,这种方案超出了所有人的期望,并迅速扩展成为城市交通基础设施的重要组成部分。 DLR1987年开始运营,最初共设有15个车站和11列火车,此后不断遍布伦敦东部,现在该轨道已有145列火车行驶于45个车站之间。

Its size makes the Docklands Light Railway larger than the entire metro systems of many major cities, including San Francisco, Rio de Janeiro and Yokohama. Passenger numbers have also risen dramatically over the past three decades. While 6.7M people travelled on the line in its first year of operation, an incredible 122M passengers used the DLR in 2016.

伦敦码头区轻铁的规模超过了世界上许多大城市的地铁系统,包括旧金山,里约热内卢和横滨。在过去的三十年中,搭乘轻轨的乘客数量也急剧攀升。DLR运营的第一年共搭载了670万人次,到2016年,乘客的数量激增至1.22亿人次。

Over the past 30 years, the line has been steadily extended, and this doesn’t look set to stop anytime soon. There are several planned extensions to the network being discussed that will make the system even larger.

在过去的30年中,伦敦码头区的轻轨线路一直在稳步延伸,而且扩展计划不会在短期内停止。如今还有很多扩建计划正在讨论中,如果实现,它们将使这一轻轨规模进一步扩大。

The DLR has grown into a truly urban railway and is a shining example for other cities to follow.

DLR已发展成为城市铁路建设的一个标杆,是其他城市效仿的光辉典范。
