MARKET UDPATE Q1 218 THAMES VALLEY & WEST LONDON
MARKET UPDATE Q1 218 THAMES VALLEY & WEST LONDON Following a positive end to 217, the Thames Valley has had a steady first quarter with leasing activity above the long term average, albeit still dominated by smaller transactions. CONTENTS THAMES VALLEY 4 WEST LONDON 12 The Elizabeth Line is set to be fully operational in 219, which will be of great benefit to the Thames Valley and West London markets as occupiers look to benefit from cost reductions utilising hub and spoke occupational models de-centralising out of Central London. With limited development in the pipeline in the Western corridor, the choice available to occupiers in today's market will be reduced over the next two years.
