The Strategic Growth Plan is the overarching plan which sets out the aspirations for delivering growth (housing, economic, infrastructure) in Leicester and Leicestershire until 2050.

Our spatial strategy acknowledges the scale of growth that is already in the pipeline as a result of Local Plans and planning permissions. It also builds upon known road and rail infrastructure opportunities or commitments.

In delivering the strategy we will enhance the role of Leicester at the heart of the county and maintain the close relationships between the City, the market towns and rural areas. In doing so, we will prepare Local Plans in line with this spatial strategy to ensure that growth is delivered in a way which responds positively to our aspirations.
