The Bromley Local Plan is currently under review and is a key document for planning policy in Bromley. The adopted Local Plan 2019 covers a range of areas, including housing and employment, while identifying sites to help deliver the borough’s economic, environmental and social objectives.
Local Plans should be reviewed every five years in accordance with planning legislation. Since the Local Plan was adopted, there have been changes to national and regional policy including changes to the National Planning Policy Framework, the adoption of the new London Plan and updated social, environmental and economic priorities published in the Bromley Corporate Strategy.
A Call for Sites exercise took place in 2021 followed the Issues and Options consultation in 2023. The council’s second Regulation 18 consultation on the Direction of Travel document took place between July and September 2025.
The Local Plan review is informed by a detailed evidence base.
