Interactive Local Plan
The interactive mapping allows you to zoom in and around a map of the district and shows spatial information relating to the policies contained in the Braintree District Local Plan 2033. The map includes links to policies within the plan but the links are not exhaustive. There are also links to Neighbourhood plans where they have been adopted for an area. The plan text and maps must be read as a whole.
While the majority of information shown on the map will not change, some items displayed are revised periodically, for example updates to/new Conservation Areas and externally sourced information such as Local Wildlife Sites and Floodzones. Changes are added as we recive notifications. Original informations sources should be consulted.
Tips for using the interactive mapping:
- Use the plus and minus buttons on the left hand side to zoom in and out, and use the mouse to move around the map.
- Use the search bar on the right hand side to search for an address.
- By clicking an area, a pop up box will bring up designations at that site. Where there are multiple designations, use the arrow button in the pop up box to scroll through them.
- Within the pop up box - clicking the view button to the right of the policy reference number will open the Local Plan 2033 document.
- From a mobile device - the Local Plan is in two sections. Links from the mapping to specific policies within the document can be found on pages 66-68
- On the right hand side of the map - the second button brings up the map legend. The third button allows you to switch data on and off.
