Thames Gateway
The Thames Gateway is the
largest and most ambitious regeneration initiative in Europe. The
area covers over 700 sq. km, including more than 1,000
hectares of previously-used developable land, making it the UK’s
largest brownfield site.
The Thames Gateway extends
from Tower Bridge eastwards to Thurrock and Dartford. It is a powerful
strategic location offering outstanding development opportunities
for new jobs and homes, in addition to environmental improvements.
More than 200,000 new homes are planned for the south-east, with
over half of this growth to take place in the
Thames Gateway.
One Planet Living
is a global initiative based on 10 principles of sustainability
developed by BioRegional and WWF.
