Planning Policy Frequently Asked Questions

The online proposals maps used to be hosted by the Planning Portal, but this is no longer the case. We are currently working on producing our own version of the proposals maps. In the meantime if you require information about planning designations please contact the Planning Policy Unit on 01628 796115 or by email: planning.policy@rbwm.gov.uk and we will help you.
