Application seeks changes to approved Riverside Parcel plans

A major planning notice was published for changes to approved plans on part of the former Drakelow Power Station site.

A planning notice published in July 2026 relates to application DMPA/2026/0518 at the Riverside Parcel, Phase 2, on the former Drakelow Power Station site.

The application seeks to vary the approved plans attached to an earlier reserved matters permission, DMPA/2023/0970. It is a change to an existing permission rather than a new outline proposal for the whole Drakelow Park development.

Planning applications can change while they are being considered, so the council planning register remains the authoritative source for the current documents and decision status.
