How?
If you arrive by train, it is possible to take bus 514 from the main station every half hour directly to the DLR site (Weincampus stop). In the other direction, the bus also runs every half hour until 8:30 p.m.
For individual transport on Tuesday evenings or in general, Mobility on Demand would be a cheap alternative to taxis and can be booked via an app: €1 booking fee plus €2.20 per trip/person plus €0.59 per kilometre driven. Each additional person to the same destination then pays only 2.20 €, not the kilometers.
