• Mayor of London’s development corporation today announces that heads of terms are agreed for a landmark Public Land Agreement with government, DfT and Network Rail, unifying 70 acres at Old Oak into a single development site.
• The agreement unlocks plans for 8,000 homes, 11,000 jobs and a new canal‑side district centred around the UK’s best‑connected new station at Old Oak Common.
• OPDC is now launching procurement for an exemplar Private Sector Partner, to join with it in delivering the £10bn Old Oak scheme, with a public two‑stage process opening this month for interested development and investment teams. 

London’s largest brownfield regeneration site has taken a major step forward, as the Mayor of London’s Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) secures agreement to the heads of terms for a landmark Public Land Agreement with government and launches the search for a visionary Private Sector Partner to deliver thousands of homes and jobs.

OPDC will consolidate its land with sites owned by the Department for Transport (DfT) into a single approximately 70‑acre development site under public sector ownership. This will create, for the first time, a unified platform to plan and deliver the capital’s biggest brownfield regeneration project, Old Oak.

Set around Old Oak Common station in west London - the country’s largest and best‑connected new station, linking HS2, the Elizabeth line, the Great Western Main Line and Heathrow Express - the Old Oak project will deliver 8,000 new homes, 200,000 sqm of commercial and community space, new public realm and green space, and a world‑class hub for tech, research and business. In total, Old Oak will support 11,000 jobs and create a thriving new canal-side district for west London.

With the land now aligned under a single strategy, OPDC is launching a two‑stage procurement to appoint an ambitious, innovative Private Sector Partner capable of shaping and delivering this nationally significant opportunity. A preferred partner is expected to be selected by Spring 2027.

This landmark partnership between London and national government marks a major step forward in driving both London-wide and national housing delivery and economic growth. It follows investment of £340m from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) used by OPDC to assemble privately owned sites in Old Oak.  

A Tender Notice, providing instruction on how to access the procurement portal, will be available on the Old Oak section of the OPDC website and via the government’s Find a Tender Service from 28 May 2026.

The procurement portal will contain the procurement documentation, which will set out the requirements for any suppliers considering whether to submit a tender.
