Thank you to all those who attended the drop in sessions on the 4th and 6th of December. The events were well attended by local residents and local stakeholders. The information presented at the sessions can be viewed on our Consultations page. There is still plenty of time to comment and we will be accepting representations until 8th January 2018.
By Planning Policy Team at 14 Dec 2017The consultation documents are now available to view on our Consultations page.
As part of the preparation of the New Local Plan, work has been undertaken on exploring future development opportunities at two of the larger villages in Darlington; Middleton St George and Heighington. Draft spatial plans have been drawn up for both of these villages.
The Council is to consult the villages on these draft spatial plans in order to receive feedback from the community and stakeholders. The consultation will run from 4 Dec 2017 until 8 January 2018. During this period you can provide your views and comments to us on the draft plans.
The comments received will be used to inform the new Local Plan for Darlington and any policies / proposed allocations for the village areas.
The consultation documents for both villages are available to view on our Consultations page.
Drop in sessions are also being held in the villages at the beginning of the consultation period. Council Officers will be in attendance with the draft plan for the village and they will be able to answer any questions which you might have. Please see details of the locations and times below.
It should be noted that this is an early stage to comment and there will be further consultation on a draft Local Plan for Darlington in spring/summer 2018.
If you have any queries regarding the above please contact Fiona McCall (Planning Officer) on 01325 406476 or [email protected]

Tees Valley Strategic Highway Improvements – Have your say by the 1st September 2017
In partnership with the Tees Valley Combined Authority, the four other Tees Valley councils and Highways England, we have set out proposals for better transport connections across the Tees Valley area.
These proposals include a new Tees Crossing, taking some pressure off the A19 Tees Viaduct, and enhanced east-west connectivity with improvements to the A66 between the A1(M) and Teesport, which includes the possibility of a new Darlington Bypass.
Consultation on the proposal remains open until Friday 1st September 2017.
