Lets Get Started: Building Silvertown

In February this year, the enabling works for the early delivery of Phase 1 plots began with tree felling along the North Woolwich Road. The removal of these trees is crucial to enabling utilities works to be carried out. The Phase 1 Reserved Matters Approval (RMA) also consented the planting of over 300 new trees within Phase 1 and the development of new public realm including a major new public square, a local park, and public access to Pontoon Dock for the first time. 

Our enabling works will continue to progress the delivery of the southern portion of Phase 1. This will get the site ready for the future construction of Plots 6, 7 and 8 near Silo D which are approved under the existing planning permission.

The remaining works pre-construction and expected times are:

  • Utility diversions commence – end of June 2022.
  • Bulk earth works commence – end of July 2022.
  • Site enabling works complete and plot construction commences – Winter 2022.


Ducts have been delivered to site for utility diversion enabling works.

We aim to complete these tasks to start construction of the first buildings this Winter. A temporary pedestrian walkway along North Woolwich Road has been constructed to protect pedestrians while site earth works are on-going. 

As we progress with works, we will keep you updated as we ready the site for construction of Phase 1, and with any changes to our programme. To keep up to date, subscribe to our news updates here.

We will be in contact with close neighbours to the site in due course, with more information about these initial works and any disruptions that may take place.  

More information about these works can be found on the introduction exhibition boards from our Silvertown Community Day, which you can find here.

If you have any comments of questions about these works, please do let us know
