According to TfL’s analysis, Abbey Wood has seen some of the biggest growth, with a 6% increase in new homes and 11% increase in access to employment.

Christofi Christou, president of the South East London Chamber of Commerce, said the Elizabeth line was having a “very positive impact” on businesses while Kay Buxton, chief executive of The Paddington Partnership, said the line had been a “post-Covid shot-in-the-arm” for the area.

“Paddington saw a 150% increase in office deals,” she said.

“Two-and-a half years later, Paddington is the UK’s second busiest station and demand for office space and confidence in the location continues to grow.”
