Carvil was initially appointed by U+I to provide public affairs support to assist it with its plans to redevelop Southwark underground station to bring forward a mixed-use redevelopment over Southwark Underground Station containing new offices, shops and restaurants. Carvil was engaged by Transport for London (TfL) when it took over the project to provide local authority engagement advice with both Lambeth and Southwark Councils on both a new station entrance on Hatfields and a land swap to deliver new council homes and improved community space around Southwark Underground station. Carvil arranged a series of meetings with local stakeholders both within Lambeth and Southwark Councils Lambeth and the local community both to develop the proposals and effect both the land swap and the creation of new council homes. A planning application was submitted in April 2020 with continued engagement with key stakeholders occurring during 2020 and planning approval being obtained in March 2021.
