Location
The station stands on a viaduct and consists of a single island platform serving trains in both directions. The ticket machines and entrance are located at ground level to the west of the island platforms, facing onto Watney Street. The station is usually unstaffed like most other stations on the DLR. There is a crossover west of the station which allows trains from Westferry, Bank or Tower Gateway to reverse here. London Bus route 339 stops near the station.
Nearby is Shadwell station on the London Overground (formerly the London Underground East London Line), a very short walk away, on the other side of Watney Street from the DLR station, with entrances on Cornwall Street and Cable Street. The interchange between the two is denoted as an official interchange on the London Underground map.
