About Liverpool City Council planning applications

Liverpool City Council publishes planning applications for all development across the city, from householder extensions in Woolton and Aigburth to large commercial builds in the Baltic Triangle, waterfront regeneration projects, hospitality and hotel schemes, and industrial developments near the port. LeadLinka aggregates these applications and makes them searchable in one place — so contractors, tradespeople, and developers can find upcoming work before it reaches any tender platform. Use the trade loadouts to filter for electrical, M&E, roofing, groundworks, or any other discipline.
