Wood Wharf EIA

Facts

Location Client Completion
London, UK Canary Wharf Group Ongoing

Project details

BDP has supported Canary Wharf Group for over 12 years with the planning and delivery of its flagship Wood Wharf scheme, comprising 650,000sqm of commercial/mixed-use space and up to 1,700 residential units across a number of tall buildings in the London Docklands.

BDP prepared the original Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) that led to Outline Planning Permission being secured in 2014, and as the site has come forward in phases, has prepared more than 26 Reserved Matters applications and numerous EIA Addendums to support amendment applications.

Through our leadership of the EIA we have played an instrumental role in shaping the planning strategy and masterplan, through an iterative team process of identifying significant effects and associated mitigation and justification. Our advice has enabled the flexible delivery of the Wood Wharf masterplan, ensuring EIA assessments are focused rather than broad brush, whilst being robust against legal challenge.
