TfL: ‘Passionately committed’ to housing

Graeme Craig, director of commercial development at Transport for London, talks about how TfL is "passionately committed" to homes development. TfL has a long-term development pipeline to deliver 10,000 homes, of which around half will be affordable. There are also some 3,000 homes set to be created for the rental market. Mr Craig said: “The COVID-19 crisis has had a profound effect on construction… We are working to understand [its] impact on the planning system and how boroughs can continue to ensure there is public scrutiny of new development schemes, and will be working with the Mayor, developers and councils to make sure that we can build the homes our city needs in a safe, responsible and transparent way.”
