Planning Applications
Exeter Cycling Campaign’s team responds to all significant planning applications that are received by Exeter City Council.
In doing so we hope to raise the levels of knowledge, awareness and understanding amongst our local authority decision makers.
Consequently, our council representatives can also be clear to applicants about the importance of accommodating suitable facilities for people cycling at the design stage.
As a result, we will have a city that is well designed and serves all of us as best it can.
We have included a selection of recent and past planning application responses below.
Responding to Planning Applications
The Cycle Campaign has held a number of workshops to provide guidance on the most effective ways to comment on Planning Applications. Material from the most recent workshop is available
