Stockport Residents Invited To Help Plan Town's Growth Until 2035

Construction News Image
Residents in Stockport are being invited to help plan the town's future development up until 2035.

The council has launched a consultation to develop a Local Plan, which will set out rules and guidelines for future development and land uses.

Features include issues surrounding housing, jobs, transport, health, education, shops and greenspaces/spaces.

Cllr Kate Butler said: "Over the next two years we are committed to have an open and transparent discussion with Stockport residents and businesses regarding what land is needed to accommodate the homes, jobs, new infrastructure and local facilities we need from now until 2035.

"We understand that the issues in one area of the borough may not be the same as in others, so we want to hear from local communities about the place they live – what works, what doesn’t, what they need and what they’d like to protect.
