Reuse Existing Design for: • Legacy as ‘Permanent’ • Games as ‘Temporary’ Align with Legacy Highways • Legacy design 40 years • Temporary design < 4 years Optimise Bridge Design Retaining structures • Simpler and Fewer • Reclaimed Materials Site-wide Procurement • Concrete/Aggregate • FSC certified wood

Wetland Bridges Joint Highest Shared CEEQUAL Score to Date of 98.3 % Majority of treatment/coatings are VOC free

For drainage pipes high density polyethylene pipes takes precedent over PVC Inclusive design

Gabions with reclaimed materials from site supporting 98% site wide target

Reuse of utility pipes as bird boxes

Inspiring Change

London 2012 – A Game Changing Project • Olympic Development Authority:  A Visionary Client as Transformational Leaders  Sets and Enforces Clear Outcomes  No History – a clean slate  Provides a Culture Embracing Change  A Public Body is under Scrutiny  Scope to Create Greenest Games to Date

Inspiring Change At the No 10 summit, Mr Cameron said: “We can tear up any notion of the Olympics leaving behind white elephants.”

London’s optimism was buoyed by a report detailing the long term benefits that the Games are hoped to leave behind. The Prime Minister said: “The legacy of these Games goes far wider than the venues.”
