Reports, toolkits and best practice guides

Good infrastructure is vital

The Mayor recognises the vital role that good infrastructure, and the built environment more broadly, play in making London a prosperous and inclusive city.

The Infrastructure Team is establishing a set of key reports, toolkits and best practice guidelines to support and inform the sector.

These include results from the innovative work done through coordination of infrastructure, key pieces of research and studies, project results and findings and useful documents for companies and organisations working in infrastructure planning and delivery.
