Residents in Byfleet have voted in favour of the Byfleet Neighbourhood Plan during a referendum held on Thursday 7 May 2026.

The result means that the plan will now be presented to councillors for adoption later this year.

See the full result.

The Byfleet Neighbourhood Plan sets out a range of locally developed planning policies covering areas such as design, the village centre, employment sites, trees and woodland, flood management, local green spaces and heritage.

Neighbourhood plans are prepared by local communities and, once approved at referendum, form part of the statutory development plan for the area. This ensures that future planning decisions reflect the priorities and vision set out by the community.

If adopted, the plan will be used to help guide planning decisions within the Byfleet Neighbourhood Area.
