Council seeks views on draft Byfleet Neighbourhood Plan
People who live, work or run a business in Byfleet are invited to take part in a 6-week consultation.
The council is seeking formal representations on a draft Neighbourhood Plan for Byfleet, which has been submitted by Byfleet Residents’ Neighbourhood Forum.
The plan sets out a vision for the area and gives the local community a greater say in where development takes place and what it looks like.
Hook Heath, Pyrford and West Byfleet neighbourhood areas already have adopted plans. These sit alongside the borough's Development Plan Documents, such as Woking’s Core Strategy, helping to determine the outcome of planning applications within their respective areas.
How to take part in the consultation
Byfleet residents and other interested parties can inspect the application and supporting documents by visiting:
- the Woking 2027 website
- Byfleet Community Library, High Road, Byfleet, KT14 7QN

Next steps

If approved, the document will be submitted to an Independent Examiner for consideration, potentially followed by a referendum next year.
