Two of London’s biggest development projects under scrutiny

Culture and 2012 legacy
Created on
10 November 2021

The London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) was established in 2012 to manage the physical legacy of the 2012 Olympic Games. [1] Along with managing Olympic Park venues, the LLDC is responsible for developing the Park as a community where people live and work. By 2030, the LLDC plans to deliver 10,000 new homes and five new neighbourhoods in the Park. [2]

Launched in 2015, the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) is the development agency for the regeneration of a large site in North West London spanning the London Boroughs of Hammersmith and Fulham, Brent, and Ealing. Its aim is to capitalise on the HS2 and Elizabeth line (Crossrail) investments in the area to create a “whole new centre and community for West London”. [3] When complete, it is predicted that the entire redevelopment will deliver 25,500 new homes and 65,000 new jobs. [4]

The London Assembly will hold a question and answer session tomorrow to discuss the current performance and future challenges for the LLDC and the OPDC. The guests are:

10am

  • Sir Peter Hendy CBE, Chair of the LLDC
  • Lyn Garner, Chief Executive of the LLDC

11am

  • Liz Peace CBE, Chair of the OPDC
  • David Lunts, Chief Executive of the OPDC

Following the discussion, London Assembly Members will debate these motions.

The meeting will take place on Thursday, 11 November 2021 from 10am, in the Chamber at City Hall (The Queen’s Walk, London SE1).



Media and members of the public are invited to attend.

The meeting can also be viewed LIVE or later via webcast or YouTube
