Jubilee Walkway Trust
The Jubilee Greenway is a Diamond Jubilee initiative inspired by the London 2012 Games. The new route builds on the established and original 14 mile (22km) Jubilee Walkway set up by the Jubilee Walkway Trust in celebration of Her Majesty’s Silver Jubilee in 1977. The Queen proposed the Walkway as a ‘legacy of her reign and to provide an opportunity for visitors to experience the variety of London life.’ The Jubilee Walkway today, which was refurbished by the Trust in 2002 as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations, is enjoyed by an estimated 2 million people per year; the Walkway map is the most popular publication visitors choose to navigate London on foot; and the Walkway remains one of the most accessible in the world, interpreted by more than 30 viewing panels and supported by business, local authorities, commerce, industry and institutions throughout its length.
