Following the successful completion of TBM Charlotte's journey to complete the Frogmore connection tunnel from King George's Park to Carnwath Road, the team have now installed a secondary lining of concrete in the tunnel.

Secondary lining is where the tunnel has an additional layer of concrete which ensures a smooth and consistent finish. Our Tunnel Vision series on YouTube provides an insight into what's happening across the project and includes an episode that provides more information on secondary lining. You can watch the video here.

The team are now carrying out further work inside the tunnel and plan to remove the main crane on site later this year. Above ground we are currently working on the architecture and landscaping. 

For more information, read our latest information sheet here.

• 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

Artist Yemi Awosile has been commissioned by Tideway to create an artwork for the new public realm site at King George’s Park. Yemi has conceived the commission to take the form of sand cast bronze elements fixed to the kiosk on both elevations inspired by furnishing fabric and domestic spaces. You can read more here.
