Map of the results of the 2002 Preston council election. Labour in red, Conservatives in blue, Liberal Democrats in yellow and independent in grey.
Elections were held for Preston Borough Council in North West England, in May 2002. Held prior to the town being awarded city status, these elections took place following a boundary review which introduced new electoral wards as a consequence of population increase. Therefore, all councillors were up for election in the new wards for the first time.
