Housing delivery and capacity support

I welcome phase two of the Government’s New Homes Accelerator Programme. Working with Government, Homes England and councils, City Hall is helping to unblock sites and accelerate the delivery of thousands of new homes for Londoners.

This programme will get homes built faster and supports our urgent action to tackle London’s housing crisis as we build a better, fairer Londoner for everyone.
Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan
