Planning and Highways Committee

The Planning and Highways Committee is responsible for decisions on planning applications, Tree Preservation Orders, enforcement actions, and various highway, road safety, and traffic management matters across the entire city of Sheffield. It also handles planning decisions for the city centre, transport development, and strategic development projects.

The committee's remit includes determining planning applications and considering issues related to transport and development. While it makes decisions on these matters, its role is primarily focused on planning and highways, with specific procedures for public speaking on agenda items.
