This page provides residents and local stakeholders with information about the construction work currently being carried out at our Victoria Deep Water Terminal site at 231 Tunnel Avenue, North Greenwich, SE10 0QE.
This critical work will ensure the wharf continues to function as an important tidal flood defence. It will reinforce the structure and minimise flood risk to the site and surrounding area, to comply with requirements established with the Environment Agency and the London Borough of Greenwich.
Below you will find the latest schedule for fender pile installation at the site. Piling work generates temporary noise and we appreciate your patience. All times are subject to change due to tidal conditions so please check back regularly for updates.
