Many have now been abandoned due to covid-19. One worrying one is planning searches. I tried to find out what's happening at the docks where a great deal of work is going and Tower road yet again closed. No documentation, no appeals, no information was available on line except the decision to OK whatever the builders want to build there.

Surely the default condition when the planning process stops is to stop development not to okay it without public involvement whatsoever. I begin to wonder if even councilors are involved in ths rubber-stamping exercise.

Tower road is altering the layout of the road and pavement, no planning permission is required for that.

Dock Road has planning permission for site clearance, a substation and a car park.

Dock Road also has planning permission for 30 buildings

All planning went through the usual due process.

Its also worth bearing in mind a lot of house alterations don't need planning now.

From September, developers will not need to submit full planning applications in order to demolish empty buildings and rebuild them as homes, or to repurpose shops and offices into housing, the government announced on Tuesday. 

Property owners will also get fast-tracked permission to add two storeys to their homes under certain conditions, as part of the extension of so-called permitted development rights (PDR)

I thought you was only allowed to build single storey extensions without planning permission.
Things are changing so fast it's hard to keep up sometimes.
