Consultation Hub
We believe that involving residents in decisions which affect their lives is a means to develop and empower a strong community and whilst we can’t force people to engage, but will do our best to make it easy and attractive for people to do so. When we want people’s views on a project, we will consult the community. Our ‘open’ (whole community) consultations will always run for at least six weeks and we will avoid running them over school summer holidays, Easter and Christmas.
Any consultations we run will be hosted here and we will always post a consultation report after each consultation.

Outdoor Gym Consultation
Following extensive requests from residents for an Outdoor Gym, Haydon Wick Parish Council is excited to announce an agreed budget of £50,000.00 to make it happen as part of the Council’s project plans for 2025/2026.
The proposed location, subject to permission from Swindon Borough Council, is at White Eagle Play Area, Haydon End.
The proposal is that two small pieces of equipment at Primrose Close Play Area (200m away from White Eagle) will also be relocated to White Eagle Play Area to help create a ‘family hub’ suitable for all ages and abilities.
To help us put a public tender document together, we would like your say in the types of equipment you would like to see. Please complete our short questionnaire below.
The proposed tender document will be advertised on the public contracts finder website from Monday 24th March 2025, inviting companies to apply and deliver the project as soon as September 2025.
Draft electric vehicle chargepoint strategy
Swindon Borough Council prepared a draft Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Strategy and we were seeking views on the proposals identified to expand the network across the Borough to 2030.
The strategy represented a long-term, strategic approach to meet the infrastructure required under the Government’s ambitions to phase out the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030. The action outlined the first steps through this roadmap, which will be reviewed every three years to take account of the latest technology, funding opportunities and demand.

Local Transport Plan refresh consultation
Swindon Borough Council were seeking views on the refreshed Local Transport Plan for Swindon.
The Local Transport Plan (LTP) is a statutory document and in principal the means by which the Council delivers its transport policies and projects.
Swindon’s third LTP was published in 2011 setting out the Council’s forward looking policies for the years to 2026. There is a recognition that the local and national context has changed significantly and that the document required a refresh to establish the impact of these changes and to support the adoption of a revised Local Plan through to 2036.

Local Plan Review
The revised Draft Local Plan Review 2036 set out the development strategy and policy framework for Swindon and once adopted, used to guide decisions on planning applications up to 2036. It proposed a range of strategies, including site allocations, to provide sufficient housing, employment and town centre sites to meet the Borough’s future needs. It also included draft development management policies to guide decision making on the quality of planning applications submitted to the Council.
