LPA Services
Local Planning Authority Services
This module provides Local Planning Authorities easy access to quality mast and mobile telecoms data. It will allow Planning Departments to challenge mobile telecom applications by providing the relevant information to assist with an informed decision.
The result will be fewer masts, more shared masts, and better coverage with existing infrastructure.
We offer the following four Services for Local Planning Authorities.
