Over £2bn of public and private sector investment is planned at Royal Docks delivering 36,000 homes and 55,000 jobs. This is part of a wider regeneration delivering 129,300 homes at development areas including London Riverside, Isle of Dogs, Thamesmead and Canada Water. The Royal Docks played an important role in the capital’s economy from the mid-1800s until it declined in the 1960s and 1970s. It now forms one of the largest development regeneration areas in London.
