This explorative feature will help users:

✅ bring better insight and information to research for proposed projects
✅ get a big picture into what’s happening in your local area
✅ review proposals and plans more effectively

Our ‘Find a National Infrastructure Project’ website just got an upgrade: visualised project boundaries.

Users can now see an individual project’s location and proposed scale in the form of a red line boundary. Find it on the project's page or via the interactive map.

[Planning Inspectorate @PINSgov]

This visualisation provides a clear and detailed idea of the full scale and extent of a project’s boundary – plus, users can download the data in GeoJSON format, allowing easy access to project information in GIS software and web mapping.
