The 2015 Thurrock Council election took place on 7 May 2015 to elect members of Thurrock Council in England.[1] This was on the same day as the general election and other local elections. Elections were held in 16 wards to elect roughly one third of the council. The results meant that there continued to be no overall control of the council. The new administration will be determined at the Annual Meeting on 27 May.
