- Three options involving different ways of extending the Elizabeth line from Abbey Wood to Dartford and/or Northfleet/Ebbsfleet:
- Option 1 – extending Elizabeth line services at six trains per hour from Abbey Wood to Northfleet on shared tracks with existing National Rail services
- Option 2 – extending Elizabeth line services to Dartford on segregated tracks at 12 trains per hour, with further extension of 6tph to Northfleet
- Option 3 – operating new Elizabeth line services to Dartford on segregated tracks, with improvements to Southeastern National Rail services between Dartford and Northfleet
- One option to improve National Rail services with no change to the Elizabeth line; and
- One option to provide new Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) services with no changes to rail services.
