Abstract
The UK Olympic Delivery Authority began to define the methodology for an ambitious construction programme on the 2·7 km2 Olympic Park site for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, which came with significant constraints. The construction programme included 14 Games time venues and other buildings; the infrastructure and utilities sufficient to service a small town; 300 residential and commercial buildings to be demolished and 2·6 million m3 of soil to be remediated. This £6 billion construction programme was to be completed in 3·5 years. At its peak this resulted in 4500 vehicle movements each day, 81 tier 1 contractors, and 3000 tier 2 contractors together with their subcontractors and suppliers and up to 9000 people involved in construction.
