Respondent: Mr David Roue
According to CDC's flood plain assessment the land proposed includes a flood plain with the average height of of flood water at 2.05 metres above sea level. As a result the road will presumably need to be elevated by around 4 metres, once supporting structures and the road itself are taken into account. As this would severely impact the iconic views of the cathedral in the South Downs setting it would have an unacceptable impact and the protection proposed by para 3 of Policy AL6 would not be accomplished.
