London's Great Outdoors

Public spaces have a huge impact on our every day life and they're part of what defines a great city like London. In the next 3 years we will be investing over £225 million in over 50 public space projects to ensure that London has a truly great outdoors.

The Mayors vision is to transform the every day experience of London's outdoor spaces and create beautifully designed oases throughout the capital's urban jungle.

This is not just a city planner's pipedream. Over 50 projects are already secure. Projects ranging from improvements to local neighbourhood parks all across London to reclaiming London's waterways and redesigning local high streets and town centres.

The Mayor's manifesto 'London's Great Outdoors' details the Mayor's vision and objectives. It's supported by two very practical programmes: 'Better Streets' and 'Better Green and Water Spaces' that outline how exactly this vision will be delivered so that Londoners will have a much nicer, brighter and enjoyable city to live, work and play in.
