The Institution of Civil Engineers maintains a deep and long standing connection with transport policy, politics, and the delivery of major infrastructure across London. In late 2025, the London Assembly’s Budget and Performance Committee published Euston, we have a problem: Mind the funding gap, a significant investigation into why major transport schemes in the capital have become increasingly difficult and costly to deliver.
This event brings together the Chairman of the Budget and Performance Committee of the London Assembly Budget and Performance Committee, and a panel of senior figures from across the infrastructure and policy landscape to provide a rare, behind the scenes look at how the report was put together and how some of the recommendations are being deployed in practice
The panel will explore the key findings and recommendations, shedding light on the systemic issues they found that have driven project delays and cost escalation. They will offer practical reflections on how their project are shaping the fabric of London, including the newly opened Silvertown Tunnel and the wider-TfL portfolio.
This event provides an opportunity for engineers, policymakers, and practitioners to understand the report’s development, and how they can continue to deliver resilient, affordable, and future ready infrastructure for London.
