Project updates

Our plans have been informed by the feedback from the pre-application public consultation that we carried out with the local community.

You can view the full planning application through Durham’s County Council here.

If you would like to be kept informed with project news, contact us here.

The Planning Application will include consideration of all relevant planning policies, and we will update this website when the application has been submitted to the council.

The in-person exhibition was held on 19 July 2022 at the Masonic Hall in Ferryhill, while the virtual exhibition ran online on our dedicated project page from  19 to 26 July 2022. The exhibition was very engaging and provided opportunities for the project team to interact with residents and other interested parties. Attendees were able to ask questions and review visualisations and other information about the project. Valuable feedback was also received, and we are grateful for every response.

The online exhibition material can be viewed here.

We will be writing to all those who provided comments and those that requested to receive project updates over the coming weeks. Please note that if you returned one of our freepost reply cards and did not tick the ‘keep me updated’ box, we are unable to respond directly due to GDPR legislation.

We will submit a Planning Application to Durham County Council in Autumn 2022. When the application is submitted the community will have a formal opportunity to comment on the plans as part of the statutory consultation process.
