About

Stratford Olympic Park ward covers the section of Stratford that contains Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the surrounding post-Games neighbourhoods in the London Borough of Newham. The ward includes the London Stadium, the London Aquatics Centre and the ArcelorMittal Orbit within the park, together with residential areas developed from the former athlete village such as East Village and Chobham Manor. Public open space, waterways formed from the River Lea and Olympic waterways, and programmed sports facilities form much of the ward's land use.

Local provision includes primary and secondary schools, community centres and retail units clustered around the park edge, with connections to Stratford transport hub and Stratford International providing rail and DLR services. Housing types range from new-build apartments in converted Games accommodation to family homes in phased developments, and ongoing construction has continued to change the street pattern and public realm. The area hosts regular sporting and cultural events in the park and stadium, while long-term management focuses on mixing residential life with accessible sports facilities and parkland.
