  • Land Disposal Notice Thames House Sothwark
    5 October 2018 Network licence condition 7 (land disposal): Thames House, Southwark Decision 1. On 4 September 2018, Network Rail gave notice of its intention to dispose of land at Thames House, Park Street, Southwark (the land), in accordance with paragraph 7.2 of condition 7 of its network licence. The land and the disposal is described in more detail in the notice (copy attached). 2. We have considered the information supplied by Network Rail. For the purposes of condition 7 of Network Rail’s network licence, ORR consents to the disposal of the land in accordance with the particulars set out in its notice. Background 3. This disposal forms part of Network Rail’s ‘Project Condor’, the disposal concerning its commercial estate business. 4. Network Rail’s property holding includes many sites that do not have an operational railway role and the company has a long history of gaining income from their commercial letting. Under Project Condor, Network Rail is to dispose of the majority of its rental business through a single lease to a winning bidder, but in doing so it will retain the rights needed to support the operation of the railway. Normally, Network Rail would conduct its land disposal transactions under the general consent of Condition 7 of its network licence, where such transactions include materially unfettered rights for it to ‘step in’ for the benefit of the railway. Reasons for decision 5. In its land disposal notice, Network Rail described how Meyer Bergman is the freehold owner of Thames House and adjoining land, located off Park Street in the London Borough of Southwark.
