Northfleet Embankment Masterplan

Northfleet Embankment

With excellent access to Ebbsfleet Valley and Gravesend Town Centre, and 2km of Thames River frontage Northfleet Embankment provides a unique regeneration opportunity.

Reusing redundant industrial land the redevelopment of Northfleet Embankment will deliver a mixed use community. An enhanced commercial core to the site will protect current occupiers such as Kimberly Clark and provide a new import terminal for Lafarge as well as creating additional modern industrial space and preserving valuable wharf facilities.

Alongside the commercial space Northfleet Embankment offers the opportunity for a new high quality waterside residential community, incorporating enhanced open space and riverside walks, community facilities and potentially a new primary school.

A dedicated Fastrack route will form the spine of the development, providing excellent public transport links to local amenities and Ebbsfleet International Station.
