What Planning Signal does

Planning Signal lets you search UK planning applications, follow the ones you care about and get an email when something changes. It is for anyone who needs to know what is being built, extended or changed near them or in an area they work in.

What you can do

• Search a council's applications by postcode, address or reference. Without an account you see the first 5 results of any search; a free account shows the full list.
• Save a search and get an email when new applications appear.
• Watch a single application and hear when its status, dates or decision change.
• Read an application's key details, dates and decision in one place.
• Professionals: claim a directory listing, receive leads and send updates to Slack or Teams.

Who uses it

• Residents and homeowners keep an eye on a neighbour's extension or a new development nearby.
• Architects and consultants research an area before they advise a client.
• Contractors find work that is about to start.
