Practice to lead design on Cringle Dock facility with engineering consultant WSP
Grimshaw has won a £4.4m job to design the redevelopment of a waste transfer station at the Battersea Power Station site.
The practice has been appointed by Wandsworth council as “concept guardian” for the replacement of Cringle Dock Waste Transfer Station alongside engineering consultant WSP.
Cringle Dock is a 1.12ha industrial facility located on the currently undeveloped eastern side of the wider 17ha Battersea Power Station site.
The 1970s riverside facility is currently used by four London councils, Wandsworth, Lambeth, Hammersmith and Fulham and Kensington and Chelsea, to unload approximately 5,000 tonnes of waste each week onto river barges.
Wandsworth has earmarked the site for residential development, which would be built above a modernised replacement waste transfer station.
The council appointed Grimshaw and WSP on parallel contracts for the redevelopment of the site earlier this month, with the work scheduled to run for seven years from 30 January 2026, with a possible six-year extension to 2039.
WSP’s role as waste and engineering consultant was given a contract value of £7.45m.
Grimshaw’s completed work on the wider redevelopment site includes the Battersea Power Station tube station on the £1.1bn Northern Line Extension, which opened in 2021.
