How to comment on a planning application in Southwark

Anyone can have their say on a planning application in Southwark. Find the application on the Southwark planning authority's public-access portal using the reference number above, then submit a comment before the consultation deadline. Comments are usually limited to planning matters such as overlooking, loss of light, traffic, noise and the character of the area.

Southwark is the local planning authority responsible for deciding these applications. Town Crier mirrors the public record so you can keep track of what is happening near you, but the council remains the authoritative source and the place to submit formal comments.

Draw a circle on the map and Town Crier will notify you the moment a new planning application is submitted or decided inside it. Most councils allow around three weeks for comments, so hearing early matters.
