Take Action
The live fight is the Greater Norwich Local Plan 2045. Respond to the scoping consultation by 28 September 2026, lobby South Norfolk Council, and register on the planning portal.
Specific actions to take now
The immediate priority is no longer Wain Estates' planning application, which has not yet been submitted. It is the Greater Norwich Local Plan 2045.
Wain Estates is promoting the site as Site 25801 through that plan. The current Scoping Consultation does not ask for any site-specific feedback from the public or other stakeholders. But it does set the rules, evidence and growth strategy that will decide whether this land is looked at again in 2027.
Deadline for the current consultation: 28 September 2026.
Respond to the GNLP 2045 Scoping Consultation
This is the action that matters most right now.
The Greater Norwich authorities (Broadland, Norwich City and South Norfolk, working with Norfolk County Council) are asking what the new plan should cover: where growth should go, what infrastructure and environmental evidence is needed, and how people should be involved.
A short, focused response from local people now helps put the New Road / Yare valley / Bawburgh Lakes cluster on the record before sites are assessed.
Here is the link on how to submit a response:
