The London Wall/Moorgate Oval Re-landscaping project is part of the City of London Corporation's Cool Streets and Greening Programme, which seeks to enhance green spaces and introduce climate resilient planting.

The re-landscaping improvements will deliver a range of benefits:

  • Enhanced biodiversity and climate resilience, with the introduction of multi-stem trees and additional planting
  • Protection of the existing mature tree at Moorgate 
  • A new pathway providing an additional route to Moorgate station
  • Introduction of additional seating for people to rest and enjoy the space

The works commence on 2 December 2024 and will last approximately four months. Any changes to the walking and wheeling routes during the construction phase will be clearly sign-posted.
