Royse, Kate. 2005 The Thames Gateway. Planet Earth, Summer. 26.
Abstract
The 40-mile stretch of land along the Thames from East
London to Essex and Kent, that forms the Thames
Gateway, is the focus for the UK’s biggest building
programme for over 50 years. Planners have already chosen the
key areas for redevelopment, so why worry about the geology?
Because, for the most part, they have used picked areas
according to socio-economic factors. However, environmental
issues – sustainable drainage, biodiversity, flood control and
foundation conditions – are important considerations, for which
an understanding of the geology can be critical.
