What Next For London?

London First's Director of Strategy and Policy, John Dickie, shares his reflections on the initial response to Covid-19 across the capital and what must happen next to set us on the road to recovery.

What has the initial response to Covid-19 highlighted about London's infrastructure, both physical and digital, and how it will need to evolve in the future?

The pilot episode of London First's new podcast, What next for London?, asks in-house infrastructure expert Daniel Mahoney to share his thoughts on how the city should to evolve as the result of the current crisis.

London has emerged as the initial epicentre of the virus in the UK and had already started to change ways unforeseen ahead of the lockdown. A few weeks in, we start to look at the impact and beyond it, to what must come next.

Host Laura Osborne talks to Dan about the potential impact on the demand for digital connectivity, funding for transport infrastructure, what that might mean for the Government's levelling-up agenda and how devolution fits in.
