As Tideway finishes work in King George’s Park, we are handing over sections of our former site to Wandsworth Council. The first section of land that has opened up to the public includes the area of new planting, avenue of trees and new entrance way to the park. Read more in our information sheet - here.

The team has recently undertaken surfacing works on the egg-shaped area of hardstanding. This block paving will capture surface water and discharge it into the new Sustainable Urban Drainage (SUDs) retention area within the park.

The egg-shaped area is required by Tideway until 2025. It will continue to be hoarded off as we undertake testing of the sewer system. Once our testing work is completed this area will also be opened up to the public.

If you have any questions about the project or our work at King George's Park then please get in touch with our helpdesk on 08000 30 80 80 or [email protected]

Our standard working hours are:

• Monday to Friday: 8am to 6pm
• Saturday: 8am to 1pm

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 phased opening
• Set limits to control activities, such as noise (Section 61 approval) from London Borough of Wandsworth

• Call our 24 hour Tideway Helpdesk 08000 30 80 80 or email [email protected].
