Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035
Representation ID: 2925
Received: 06/02/2019
Respondent: CPRE Sussex
Representation Summary:
Major development around East Wittering seen as having negative impact on area. There are reassuring words in policy about impact of developments and mitigation, but unclear how these worthy aims can be achieved here. Plan refers to "promoting sustainable transport options". Additional housing in area can only exacerbate transport problems. Short of everyone using the cycleway, it is hard to envisage how this area can cope with yet further residents. Aware many new houses in the area purchased as second homes. Any development here should be strongly slanted towards affordable homes for local people. Policy does not promote that approach.
