BUILDING firm Willmott Dixon has landed a major £86.3million project in Woolwich near London's 2012 Olympic Park.
The Love Lane redevelopment -part of plans to revive the deprived area of south-east London - will house an 80,000 square foot Tesco superstore, car park, police station as well as 259 flats when completed in July 2013. Work begins in April.
Willmott Dixon director John Frankiewicz said: "It will bring huge inward investment to this part of Woolwich, which will create both new jobs and further growth."
