About the project

This area includes Allerton Bywater, Colton, Garforth, Halton, Great Preston, Kippax, Ledsham, Ledston, Little Preston, Methley, Micklefield, Mickletown and Swillington and Whinmoor.

The map below shows all of the potential sites that have been assessed in this area. Sites suggested for housing, industrial or commercial uses are coloured based on their score; green (lots of positives), yellow (a few negatives), orange (a lot of negatives) or red (some serious concerns). Sites suggested for minerals, waste, renewable or energy uses are coloured purple. Where sites are assessed for both types of uses, they are coloured according to their score for housing, commercial or employment use (red/orange/yellow/green).
