Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 1121

Received: 05/02/2019

Respondent: Mr Nathan Day

Representation Summary:

Air Quality Management Areas have been identified in three locations, however I am surprised this is not expanded further to include most of the A27 roundabout junctions. The stationary traffic build-up from emsworth to Fishbourne roundabout every weekday of a few miles must have a significant local air pollution impact and local evidence of pollution impact on soot and particulates eg from NO2 suggests further impact assessments are warranted. I would request a more thorough and regular air pollution monitoring approach is adopted.
