Representation Summary:

This is a very laudable vision but with the volume of housing going into a small space ( 30% of developable land) it cannot be achieved. Chichester Harbour is in decline and building so many houses along the east / west corridor will make this far worse. There are no solutions to the A27, in terms of network improvements ( apart from two) and certainly not with alternative forms of transport. This will result in missing climate change goals.
