Consultation Opportunity: Towards a new London Plan

The London Mayor has launched his engagement on his next London Plan, Towards a new London Plan. You can read more on our webpage.

The webpage will also direct you to our engagement portal where you can respond to the consultation with your views. You can also sign up to attend a webinar or join a discussion on Talk London.

You can watch supporting animations which explain more about this consultation and the key topics.

The consultation runs for 6 weeks starting on Friday 9 May, ending at 23.59 on Sunday 22 June 2025.

London Plan

Produced by the Mayor of London, the London Plan is a blueprint for development and growth in London. It includes policies on key issues such as new homes, workplaces, public transport and open spaces.

It is a legal requirement for the Mayor to produce an up to date Plan every 5 years, but the Plan needs to look beyond this timeframe. The next London Plan will look forward to 2050.

This consultation seeks views to inform the drafting of the next London Plan.

Call for Evidence

The Call for Evidence has also been open since December 2021. You are welcome to submit evidence that could include:

  • Published reports, research, case studies or other information which might help us understand how London should change or develop in the future.
  • Personal accounts of how development, buildings, places, spaces and planning affect different communities, especially impacts that relate to age, disability, sex, race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, marital status or pregnancy and maternity. This may include personal accounts of how people from different groups experience places very differently and the experiences of those who identify with more than one of these characteristics.
  • International or national examples of best practice
  • Suggestions for how engagement through this process can reach a more diverse range of Londoners.

This will also close on Sunday 22 June 2025. No further evidence will be accepted after this time so we can review while preparing the next draft London Plan.

Online Events

We’re running the following online events as part of the consultation:

  • Tuesday 13 May 2025: 9.30am – 10.30am

Online events are open to all and suitable for interest groups, public campaign groups, developers, landowners, agents and Londoners to ask questions and find out more. We are holding three online events, you only need to attend one as they are the same briefing.

More events for Londoners are planned, you can keep informed by registering for updates.

Next steps

Following this consultation, comments will be reviewed and help inform a draft London Plan, which will be published in 2026.

Working together, we can further develop a London Plan to build a fairer, greener, and more prosperous London for everyone.
