Summary of the contracting process

Transport for London is currently in the award stage of the Silvertown Tunnel Project, having successfully completed a competitive procurement process for a long-term availability contract involving the design, construction, financing, and maintenance of a new river crossing between Silvertown and Greenwich Peninsula in east London. This initiative falls within the construction industry and was published on 6 October 2016, with a contract period that commenced on 21 November 2019 and extends until 17 January 2050.
