The Olympic Park Legacy Company

The Olympic Park Legacy Company (OPLC) was founded by the Mayor in partnership with central government as the public sector, not-for-profit organisation responsible for the long-term planning, development, management and maintenance of the Olympic Park and its facilities after the London 2012 Games.
