Labour-run Bradford Council's Local Plan to build 1000s of houses in Keighley and Ilkley

Labour-run Bradford Council's local plan has indicated thousands of houses are to be built throughout Keighley and Ilkley, with hundreds planned on greenbelt land. You can see an break down of where Bradford Council proposes building these houses in the map below. The plans will see an extra 3,000 new houses being built in the local area, putting huge additional pressure on local infrastructure and destroying precious green open spaces.

Using the sidebar, you can view proposals in your area, as well as in other parts of the Keighley and Ilkley constituency.

As your MP, I believe houses should only be built when the infrastructure to support them is properly in place, and that where housebuilding does occur brownfield land should be prioritised over greenbelt sites.

Use the map below to see where proposals are planned.
