The Challenge

Developing a huge, brand new waterfront community for London was an extremely exciting, and challenging project.

The scope was vast and comprised 3,385 homes, a riverside walkway, new streets, parks and squares, a school, shops, offices and riverside restaurants.

We were the principal contractor on 2 phases. Our works included piled foundations, basements walls and podiums, frames to transfer slabs, roads, sewers and statutory authority work. We also constructed piled wall tidal terraces on the River Thames and were responsible for the erection and operation of 8 No tower cranes.

The site constraints included contaminated ground, a high water table with contamination, and close proximity to the River Thames, to the Docklands Light Railway and to the existing Barrier Point Development.
