Response to Consultation on the Northern Development Plan at Pilsworth

Consultation on the proposed Atom Valley development at Pilsworth is ongoing from 15th November 2024 to 10th January 2024.

The draft framework provides more detail on Bury and Rochdale Councils vision and aspirations for Northern Gateway. It will establish key principles for the development of the site and shows how the site is likely to be developed through a high-level masterplan.  The framework also sets out how new employment floorspace, housing and supporting infrastructure will be provided in a coordinated and phased approach. 

All relevant documentation can be found on the Council’s web site at www.rochdale.gov.uk/local-planning-policy/northern-gateway-heywood-pilsworth  

NBHBA have submitted the following on behalf of members and other Equestrians in the Area. We are proactively trying to get involved in the planning so that Active Travel Routes include equestrians and we maximise the opportunity to create more safe off road riding routes in the area.
