London Power Tunnels (Phase 2)

This project is the second phase of the scheme to rewire the capital, called London Power Tunnels. It follows the success of the first phase, which was a seven-year, £1 billion programme, building 32km of tunnels and two new substations in North London.

There were a number of significant achievements in phase 1 of the scheme, including recycling 99% of spoil removed from the tunnel; designing a state-of-the-art substation at Highbury and a development to accommodate new business units and affordable homes; and working with over 30,000 pupils across London schools to promote engineering skills.

South London Timber has provided a range of construction timber to facilitate this project.
