Representation Summary:

Extra homes increases road traffic on an already busy road system in Hunston and out to the A27

Full text:

Extra homes will involve extra vehicles on an already busy main thoroughfare. If 200 homes are built this will increase traffic by at least 100 cars alone. With the proposed increase in homes in Selsey this traffic and increased traffic from new homes in Selsey, will merge on the busy B2145 and at the small roundabout on the B2166. There has recently been a death caused by reckless driving, in Hunston. Previously a child has been injured as a result of the traffic. More traffic will result in the likelihood of further accidents.
Both the B2166 and B2145 frequently become choked with traffic when the A27 has traffic congestion as a result of traffic accidents/roadworks and holiday/Goodwood traffic
