Opportunities have been advertised for contractors to transform the Olympic Park after the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) is on track to deliver the Olympic Park venues and infrastructure ready for test events ahead of the Games. After the Games, the Park will become the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

Plans for the long-term use of the Park are already in place. Contractors are now being sought to transform the parklands, infrastructure and those venues not covered by existing contracts after the Games. Two opportunities are being advertised, one each for the south and north of the Park.


The legacy conversion of the Olympic Stadium, Olympic Village and Aquatics Centre are covered by existing contracts.

ODA Director of Design and Regeneration Alison Nimmo said: "Legacy was at the heart of the London 2012 Bid and 75p of every £1 was spent cleaning up what was a former industrial area and creating the Olympic Park is an investment in the regeneration of east London. The venues, sports facilities, parklands, allotments, roads, bridges, footpaths, cycle-paths, energy and utilities networks will form the foundation of the long-term development of this part of London for future generations."

Once the ODA's legacy transformation is complete the Olympic Park will be handed over to the legacy owners, primarily the Olympic Park Legacy Company and Lee Valley Regional Park Authority.
