South Downs Local Plan
Review of South Downs Local Plan
An eight-week consultation begins this month as the National Park invites people to have their say on how and where development takes place.
The South Downs Local Plan is being reviewed to ensure it’s up-to-date and addresses important issues such as nature recovery, climate change, affordable housing and helping local communities thrive.
The public consultation of the Local Plan Review starts on 20th January and will run until 17th March. This is the main opportunity for people to help shape the final Plan, so the National Park is encouraging the public to get involved.
The proposed changes to the plan include housing allocations at 48 new proposed site across Hampshire, West Sussex and East Sussex, including one in Twyford.

Eastleigh Local Plan
Eastleigh Local Plan
Eastleigh Borough Council is currently consulting on Issues and Options as part of their Local Plan review.
The consultation is open until 29th January 2025.
One of the strategic housing allocations in the proposals is “Strategic Development Option A” – which is an allocation of 4,600 homes north-east of Fair Oak. The Parish Council is especially concerned about the permanent increase of traffic on the B3335 through Twyford which would likely result from a development of this size in this location.
Read the plans and take part in the consultation:
There are three remaining drop in sessions where you can view plans and talk to Officers from Eastleigh Borough Council. These are:
Fair Oak – Monday 13 January, 3.30pm – 7.30pm, Fair Oak Village Hall (Grace Mears Room), Shorts Road
Bishopstoke – Thursday 16 January, 4pm – 8pm, Bishopstoke Community Centre, Church Road
Eastleigh – Monday 20 January 3.30 – 7.30pm, Eastleigh House, Upper Market Street
