We first raised this proposal in September 2021. Find more information here.
On 15 November 2021, Candidates for St. Katharine's & Wapping, Dominic Buxton and Mahbub Alam, organised a site visit to Wapping Pier by King Henry Wharf with Caroline Pidgeon AM (Chair of the London Assembly Transport Committee), representatives from Thames Clippers, Woods’ Silver Fleet and residents. They discussed the proposal for refurbishing the pier and introducing a scheduled passenger riverboat service.
The commercial operators responded positively, and we are therefore now seeking to demonstrate local support with a petition.
We, the undersigned, are calling for the restoration and redevelopment of Wapping Pier and a new Thames Clippers passenger river bus service for residents and commuters to stop at Wapping Pier.
