London's public transport was an element of the bid which was scored poorly in the IOC's initial evaluation, however they felt that if the improvements were delivered in time for the Games then London would cope.
Transport for London (TfL) carried out numerous improvements in preparation for 2012, including the expansion of the London Over ground's East London Line, upgrades to the Docklands Light Railway and the North London Line and the introduction of a new "Javelin" high-speed rail service, using the Hitachi Corporation's "bullet" trains. In September 2011 it was discovered that the platforms at Stratford International station were not at the right height for the Javelin trains. The platforms were raised with wood, which could be removed after the Games as the platforms were originally designed for Euro star trains, and it is hoped that Euro star will stop at the station after 2012. According to network rail an additional 4,000 train services will run during the Games, with train operators putting on longer trains during the day.
