Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 1492

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Mr Derrick pope

Representation Summary:

Whilst supporting the general principles of the Southern Gateway Development, it would be detrimental to the residents of the area south of the A27 if vehicular access to the City from the south was to be restricted prior to the implementation of a Highways England scheme to relieve congestion on A27. The planning strategy recognises that Chichester is the centre upon which residents to the south of Chichester rely for many of their needs. Access for them needs to be maintained until an alternative improved access across the A27 to the City had been provided.
