I am writing to Object to CDC Local Plan as I believe in its current form it will destroy large areas of Chichester's historic and environmentally sensitive areas in all but the Northern part of the city. It doesn't protect Chichester Harbour, aiming to build on the flood plain and right up to Harbour boundary. The proposed AL6 link road is on a category 3 Flood Plain that according the Governments recommendations should not be built on due to environmental damage and the risk of flooding. The plan has no recent transport data and isn't robust enough to cope with current or future traffic.
