Many will know we are in the final stages of Enfield’s Local Plan, with the second stage public hearings scheduled next month. The next level up in the planning hierarchy is the London Plan. It’s a mightily influential document with impact on all our lives across many key dimensions. Produced by the Mayor of London, the London Plan is a blueprint for development and growth in London. It includes policies on key issues such as new homes, workplaces, public transport and open spaces.
It is a legal requirement for the Mayor to produce an up to date Plan every 5 years, but the Plan needs to look beyond this timeframe. The next London Plan will look forward to 2050.
The Mayor has launched his engagement on his next London Plan. The consultation runs for 6 weeks starting on Friday 9 May, ending at 23.59 on
Sunday 22 June 2025.
This is an opportunity to get your views heard early doors, which is invariably more useful than moaning about the final result a few years down the line.
