THETTIS: The Thamesmead Healthcare, Energy, Transport & Telecommunications Integration Study
Lead Participant:
INNOVATE AT PRP LTD
Abstract
This project is an exciting technical feasibility set against the emerging development in Thamesmead, South
East London, in the London Boroughs of Greenwich and Bexley. We propose to integrate energy generation
and distribution infrastructure, healthcare services, communications infrastructure, and existing and upcoming
transport networks with a Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) system. Thamesmead today is an area faced with
significant challenges to the community in terms of health deprivation, access to high income jobs, a
characterless town centre, disjointed open space network, poor transport links and diversity of
neighbourhoods with a lack of community cohesion. With this project we aim to explore how the
implementation of a PRT system to connect future Crossrail infrastructure to the community, and to connect
the community with healthcare, open space and a revitalised town centre, whilst providing a platform for the
physical integration of PRT with the built environment, including energy and communications infrastructure.
