Nottingham City Council, as any other Local Authority, is preparing to develop an Area Wide Design Code, a forthcoming mandatory piece of legislation in England and Wales to drive how development happens in each area.

PROCESS

According to central government deadlines, Nottingham is aiming to achieve a final draft Area Wide Code (NAWC) by the Spring of 2026. The production of a design code involves extensive engagement and testing. In the next few months, we will be inviting industry, academia and communities to participate in discussions about how the city should evolve in the future. We now invite anyone who might be interested in participating, to sign the expression of interest below, to be notified of any NAWC related activity in the future.
