King George’s Park

The end of 2019, our King George's Park site met the biggest milestone yet for the whole Tideway Project.

Charlotte, the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) creating the Frogmore Connection Tunnel, broke through into the shaft, thus completing half of her journey. You can read about the break through here.

Charlotte was then driven back over to Dormay Street where she has completed rest of the Frogmore Connection Tunnel towards Carnwath Road Riverside. You can read about this here.

The site team completed the secondary lining on the Frogmore Connection Tunnel (between King George's Park and Dormay Street) and continuing with the Kiosk installation. 

For more information, look at the latest CLWG presentation on the tab below.

Our King George's Park site team are committed to managing our works and mitigating any impacts. Examples of measures we currently have in place include:

• Hoarding has been erected along the site boundary

• The contractor is protecting the trees, in particular the Black Poplar tree along the boundary with Neville Gill Close and the Red Oak tree at the northern edge of the park

• The site area will be returned to public use as soon as practicable, including potential phasing

• Set limits to control activities, such as noise (Section 61 approval) from LB Wandsworth
