Plans to extend the "cultural spine" of London's South Bank through to Battersea Power Station in Nine Elms have been announced by Wandsworth and Lambeth Councils.

The local authorities are working to appoint a cultural placemaking consultancy in order to ensure the Nine Elms area capitalises on its potential as a centre for arts and culture.

It forms part of the multi-billion pound plans to transform the former industrial Nine Elms area, which is one of the largest regeneration sites in central London.

Nine Elms programme director Helen Fisher said: "As we reshape this district we want to lay the foundations for a rich, exciting cultural scene, capitalising on our central London location and riverside setting."
