Options and preferences

We are currently in the process of preparing a new Local Plan for Wigan Borough to 2040. 

We intend the Local Plan to be ambitious for the future of the borough.

We have consulted at both the 'Issues and Opportunities' stage in late 2022 and on Options and Preferences from 23 October - 18 December 2023.

All comments received are currently being reviewed and will inform the Initial Draft Local Plan, which will be published in 2025. We will publish a consultation report soon summarising the issues raised at the Options and Preferences stage.

The views of local residents, businesses and other stakeholders are really important to us, so we thank you for your comments so far.
