Derriford/Seaton Area Action Plan

The City Council’s vision for Derriford and Seaton is to create a sustainable mixed-use new urban centre at the heart of the north of Plymouth.

This Area Action Plan will set out land use policies and proposals to create a new centre for northern Plymouth at Derriford. We aim to promote this area as a high quality 'northern gateway' into the city; to safeguard the long-term position of the airport; to improve transport connections; to enable high density mixed use development in Southway and to promote public access to and enjoyment of natural green spaces.

Where we are

We completed the Issues and Options stage in March 2005, the timescale for the preparation of the Council's preferred options for Derriford/Seaton has been revised, please see the Local Development Scheme Revised timetable 2008 for details.

Talk trees and trails with us at the Derriford New Park Consultation. There is a drop-in event organised at Windsor House on 28 October 2008, from 10am to 4pm for people to tell us what they like and dislike about some of the ideas that are being put forward for a new community park.
