We charge for providing pre-application advice. 

Please see the fees below:

Please note that when you apply for the pre-application advice, you are able to pay the fees using your bank card or by BACS.

Charges correct as of 24 June 2020 and are subject to annual review.

All charges are inclusive of VAT at 20%

The above charges are for pre-application advice only, any additional services or data provision will be a separately chargeable activity.

Mixed use developments are bespoke and will be reviewed. An Officer will contact you stating the cost of the pre-application advice.

For larger schemes (50+ dwellings) the fee includes all communications up to the agreement of any draft Transport Statement or Assessment, this may also include likely planning obligations.

For clarity Highway Authority pre-application fees apply irrespective of whether the Local Planning Authority is charging for planning pre application advice. Charges will apply equally to market and affordable housing proposals. The Highway Authority reserves the right to waive this charge for charitable organisations.
