Thames cable car: the bigger picture

Transport for London's planning application for a cable car to cross the Thames has been submitted to Newham and Greenwich, the two councils that would accommodate it. The hope remains that the project will be completed in time for the Olympics. Darryl Chamberlain writes:

It still feels like the answer to a problem which doesn't really exist ("cripes! how do we get to the Royal Victoria Dock?") but bear in mind that even within six months, the area around Peninsula Square, close to the Dome, will have a very different feel to now.
