Dear Hackney resident,
We have been appointed by Hackney Council to carry out the refurbishment and expansion works of the Kings Hall Leisure Centre. We are due to commence our initial site setup preparations from Monday 5th January 2026 and we envisage all works to be completed by end of 2028.
Below is a summary of the key site setup preparations and early construction activities:
Tree Removal within the existing northern Leisure centre car park from 5th January 2026:
Other site setup works include temporary power, cabin foundation and cabins as well as soft landscaping strip and temporary tarmac as our temporary accommodation setup is to be carried out starting Monday 12th January 2026:
Hoarding works to commence from 26th January 2026 as per outline plan below:
It is worth noting that the site preparation works mentioned above are being carried out in co-ordination with Hackney council, with Morgan Sindall actually taking ownership of the site from Monday 26th January 2026.
Once the site setup preparations are complete, we will be commencing the asbestos removal from early February 2026. Our main works including demolition activities are due to commence in March 26.
We have worked closely with the London Borough of Hackney Highways team and agreed a Traffic Management strategy on Clapton Square. This involves some parking alterations and set up of a construction vehicle pit lane while maintaining two way cycling.
Alteration works will likely commence around February 2026 but further information will follow in due course via a letter and our website.
