Preparing for the London Olympic Games 2012
The Interlink Express Senior Project Team has now met with the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), a division of Transport for London (TfL).
Given the potential major impact of the Olympics, Interlink Express have decided to recruit a dedicated Project Manager.
It is clear from our early work and meetings with the ODA that in some parts of London, we can expect severe congestion.
Our next step is to map out impacted postcodes and agree alternative delivery methods for our customers.
We are preparing a full and detailed operational response to issue to our customers before the end of March 2012.
We will continue to publish updates as appropriate and if you would like to receive regular email updates of Interlink Express' approach to the Olympics please email us at interlink2012@interlinkexpress.com
