Earlier this year Peabody announced its proposals

for a £1bn regeneration programme for

Thamesmead over the next ten years.

This, together with two Housing Zones which are being

led by the London Borough of Bexley and Royal Borough of

Greenwich and delivered by Peabody, with more than £45m

funding from the Greater London Authority, has made

Thamesmead one of the UK’s leading regeneration projects.

As well as creating thousands of new homes, we are

committed to improving existing homes and public

spaces and creating jobs and commercial opportunities

in Thamesmead.

Working with investors, we want to make Thamesmead

an area of opportunity for all and with the Elizabeth

line opening in 2018, not only will it make jobs and

opportunities in the capital more accessible to Thamesmead

residents, but it will help to bring new businesses and

amenities to Thamesmead, making it a more attractive

place to live, work and visit.

We are working with the London Borough of Bexley and the

Royal Borough of Greenwich to look at how we can make the

most of the Elizabeth line. This includes extending the public

realm improvements that they are carrying out around

AbbeyWood station and along Harrow Manor Way to create

a gateway into Thamesmead.

We are also looking at how we can make the most of the DLR

extension that is in the pipeline for Thamesmead and are

working with Transport for London to see how we can bring

further transport improvements to the area.
