London 2012 proposals

The principal proposals for the Lea Valley Olympics Precinct include:

The Main Stadium and other key venues including the Aquatics Centre, the Velodrome, Hockey, and three Indoor Arenas
The Main Press Centre and International Broadcast Centre
Olympic Village and ancillary facilities
Major infrastructure and services, including a Combined Cooling, Heat and Power Plant (CCHP)
Bridges, land bridges and underpasses
Landscaping and park creation
Improvements to the existing waterways

The construction of all of these is likely to have some kind of impact on the existing archaeological and built heritage resource in the Lea Valley. As established in the Planning Consent the effects will be mitigated by an agreed process which ranges from retention in situ (where possible), through to recording and excavation.
