Around £500m has already been spent by Knight Dragon across the 150-acre site, which has 3,000 homes under construction, with 700 due to be completed later in the year.

The firm’s masterplan includes upgrades to the underground and bus links at North Greenwich station, in order to support the new community, which is hoped to expand over the next 20 years.

Knight Dragon construction director Paul Symons said: "Mace will be providing final proposals over the next eight weeks with a view to entering into a contract for the works in October 2015."
