No you need to change at Canary Wharf

@Violetroselily thank you so much I've looked at so many routes !!! Would it be easier to stay on the train to London Bridge and get the jubilee line to Stratford ?

In my opinion that would be easier as it's a more direct route.

It's a really easy change at Canary Wharf, just cross the platform. I think the DLR is the easiest way to Stratford from Lewisham

Jubilee is a lot quicker

I agree, much easier to use DLR and change at Canary Wharf.

Nope it's really easy to change at Canary Wharf. You don't really even need to change platforms as the Stratford train comes in on the same level. If you miss the stop you can still change at the next one as well, just turn around and take the next Stratford train

Honestly it's quick, easy and incredibly reliable

The change at Canary Wharf is so easy, literally just wait on the same platform and the Stratford train will be on the other side. They'll probably be alot of people doing the same change.

If you're in a hurry and on a fast train to London Bridge then you could change for the jubilee line there, but Citymapper says there's not much in it in terms of journey time

Personally I'd do the DLR because I just think it's nicer than the Jubilee tbh
