The new centres will reduce the number and length of journeys made, as contractors will no longer have to leave the site to collect and return hired tools and equipment. The convenience of the new centres will also increase the efficiency of the venue contractors on site by reducing travelling time.

ODA Director of Construction, Howards Shiplee, said: "These two facilities, one based at the north and one based at the south of the Park will significantly reduce the number of journeys made within and around the Olympic Park, as workers won't have to leave the Park to pick up and drop off tools and equipment.
"That means that we are reducing congestion and emissions from vehicles by providing facilities nearby that they would usually travel to get. It's another positive step towards making the construction of the Olympic Park as sustainable as possible."
The centres will be up and running in the second quarter of 2009.
