Join Barking Riverside for this technical briefing exploring the complex engineering challenges and innovative solutions behind the transformation of the foreshore at Barking Riverside.
This webinar will focus on how Barking Riverside are delivering resilient and future-proofing infrastructure, outlining how flood defences, ecological considerations, and public realm enhancements are being integrated into one of Europe’s largest placemaking projects.
Key discussion areas will include designing for resilience through flood defence and climate adaptation, addressing site-specific constructability challenges with tailored engineering solutions, and integrating hard infrastructure with ecological and public realm enhancements to maximise landscape and community value.
Attendees will gain CPD insights into the collaborative design and delivery approach being taken to safeguard and activate this river edge for generations to come.
