What are LTGDC’s plans for Hackney Wick?

A new creative and high-tech hub for east London with over 6,000 square metres of affordable and flexible workspace and up to 130 residential apartments with supporting retail space and café/restaurants set either side of the existing Hackney Wick Station.  LTGDC as part of the “Hub” project is working with Network Rail and TfL to initiate important improvements to the station which will see a pedestrian and cycle concourse (through the existing embankment) along with a new ticket hall and step-free access.  Making access from north and south to Hackney Wick far more accessible than it is now, these new connections  form a part of the new access schemes that open the Olympic Park up to its surrounding, with the two bridges over the Lea Navigation currently under construction.

Rainham Village: expressions of interest
Lamson Rd: LTGDC

A new bus rail interchange at Rainham Village has been the engine for regeneration and re-inventing village life.

East of Barking and Dagenham and meeting the Thames and Bexley at its southern boundary, Havering is London’s far east. Known for its main shopping district at Romford and prosperous residential settlements in Hornchurch and Upminster, the story of suburban contentment and growth changes dramatically at Rainham Village.

A historic village recorded in the Doomsday book, Rainham Village’s best days seemed behind it. Unsurprisingly there was a lack of ownership for the Village. The neighbouring Tesco’s store was a typical out of town development whose main road circumvented the Village in order to establish better in routes. This sapped vitality out of the struggling Village centre with life for local shop front businesses becoming even more precarious.
