How TfL’s land is being transformed into new homes, places, and genuine social value



In this episode of Better Places, Concilio’s Siddo Dwyer is joined by Graeme Craig, CEO of Places for London, and Mark Walker, the organisation’s Strategic Engagement Lead. Together they discuss how Places for London is reshaping the capital by unlocking land around transport hubs to deliver thousands of new homes and public spaces.



From Bollo Lane to Cockfosters, we explore how the team is tackling London’s biggest challenges - housing need, sustainability, and trust in development—while delivering value back into the transport network. Mark shares lessons from a career in political engagement and explains why listening to communities from day one is key.



This is an insightful look at how public land can be harnessed for public good—without compromising on ambition or delivery. Listen now!
