The context is the consultation process on the construction of a new Crossrail 2 station in Chelsea, London, where there is resistance. Analysis of social media communication by the affected public groups and interviews with the opposing group shows different intragroup concerns, with stakeholders developing a strong identity enabled by social media. To reduce perceived lack of responsiveness, we recommend that project managers harness social media marketing principles for ongoing relationship building. – Reproduced   aConsultation, Identity, Influence strategies, Infrastructure megaprojects, Intra Stakeholder groups, Legitimacy, Public stakeholders, Social media  aProject Management Journal
