Overview of project

With 5,500+ acres – more than all 8 of London’s Royal Parks combined – stretching across almost every borough, Transport for London (TfL) is one of London’s largest landowners. Almost 70% of this land is covered by the transport network: roads, stations, track, and associated infrastructure. However, the remaining land presents a significant opportunity for service expansion or other uses such as commercial, industrial and residential development or energy production and nature recovery.

We have already taken several important steps to make more efficient, effective, and sustainable use of our land and property that doesn’t make up the transport network, including:

• Rationalising our occupied office estate and creating attractive modern working environments;
• Creating Places for London, our commercial property and development subsidiary to generate sustainable revenue;
• Publishing a Corporate Environment Plan with clear ambitions around buildings decarbonisation, green infrastructure, and air quality.

The TfL Land & Property Approach shows that we are committed to make best use of all of our land and property to deliver and optimise transport, financial, sustainability, colleague, and environmental outcomes for TfL.
