The Lower Thames Crossing (LTC)
The Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) is one of the UK’s most significant infrastructure projects. LTC is a new road that will connect Kent and Essex through a tunnel beneath the River Thames and will be the greenest road ever built in the UK - creating six times more green space than road. The reliable new route will almost double road capacity over the river east of London to reduce congestion and give millions of people more choice on where they live, work and spend their valuable time.
We have a diverse programme team on LTC that reflects the communities we work in and fosters an inclusive culture by actively supporting the programme's Purpose, Principles and Cultural Pillars and growing employee networks.
We are excited to share a rare opportunity for an accomplished Buyer to join us at LTC, helping to deliver the Lower Thames Crossing—one of the UK’s most ambitious infrastructure projects. As we build a new route connecting Kent and Essex beneath the River Thames, we’re not only easing congestion at Dartford but also setting new standards for sustainability, connectivity, and public benefit. This is your chance to shape Britain’s greenest road, complete with new green spaces and pathways, scheduled to open in the early 2030s.
