Deptford Church Street

Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) Annie has completed her 4.5km journey from Greenwich Pumping Station, tunneling through our sites at Deptford Church Street and Earl Pumping Station and into our Chambers Wharf shaft in Bermondsey. 

We have recently submitted our draft submission to the London Borough of Lewisham for the design of the new permanent structures above the ground and associated landscaping. Please see our information sheet for further details. 

To find out more about what's happening across the project you can watch our Tunnel Vision series on YouTube.
