Update AL11 to reflect current reality of village and in the context of new development proposals
Despite Hunston being a 'Service' village it has very few services which will avoid travel from new developments
Overall - clarity needs to be provided as to why a larger development was deemed to be more sustainable in Hunston (see Section 4.1.1).
Hunston Sustainability Report:
1C - change to neutral - development would have a negative impact on biodiversity due to loss of green space habitat and proximity of proposed developments to Hunston Copse.
4B - change to negative (red) - as strategic development will increase congestion on B2145 and increase need to travel to Chichester City. Limited facilities in village therefore there will be increased commuter trips or trips for services (e.g doctor, pharmacy, schools)
6C -include increased traffic on already congested B2145
