Development Consent Order documents
View documents relating to our Development Consent Order.
Explore the Lower Thames Crossing Development Consent Order (DCO) application documents submitted during the examination, which closed in December 2023. All documents are also hosted on the Planning Inspectorate website.
As part of the examination process, the Lower Thames Crossing has committed to hosting the 'certified documents' (those identified in Schedule 16 of the draft DCO) below.
These documents have been published ahead of the decision on whether to grant the DCO, which if granted would give us permission to build and operate the crossing.
Publishing these documents does not pre-judge the decision phase. The documents are provided to assist our stakeholders.
Please note that a small number of documents are confidential and cannot be provided.
