New Local Plan
We are preparing a new Swindon Local Plan to guide growth and development across the borough to 2043, with a wider vision to 2055.
On adoption, the Swindon Local Plan 2043 will replace the current Swindon Local Plan 2026. It will form a key part of the development plan for the borough. The Local Plan sets out:
- housing and employment needs and where development should take place
- policies to guide development and decisions on planning applications
- infrastructure and transport requirements
- how we will protect and enhance the environment
- how sustainable growth will support residents, businesses and communities
The proposed plan period is 2023 to 2043.
