The future of the UK Planning System.

The future of the UK Planning System.

The new Labour government is set to “get Britain building again” aiming to build 1.5 million homes over the next parliament implementing a "once in a generation" overhaul of the National Policy Planning Framework.

Beyond housing, reforms will prioritise brownfield sites, green belt access, and new Compulsory Purchase Orders.
MetaConnex plays a crucial role in this initiative by unlocking capabilities at pace, significantly accelerating the planning and construction process.

The Fragmented Planning System

Effective and sustainable development requires cooperation among local authorities, developers, and investors. However, fragmented tools and relationships hinder the planning process. A unified platform could enhance collaboration, streamline operations, and lead to more efficient, cost-effective projects.
