Planning Inspectorate list of nationally significant infrastructure projects (roads, railways, energy, water, waste), October 2026 (OGL). Each is placed at one point, usually the middle of the site; long schemes run well beyond it.
Transport schemes within 20 km
None on our list yet. We're starting with recently opened and under-construction rail schemes.
The longer view
Like-for-like prices in Woodley: +35% over five years (2020 → 2025).
Council tax list: 10 homes added in the neighbourhood since April 2024.
Population (GP registrations): +0.8% in two years.
Spotted when a home's energy certificate shows at least 15 m² (and 15%) more floor area than an earlier one. Only homes with two certificates show up, so the real number is higher. A busy street suggests extensions get permission here; check the council's planning register for the details.
