I do not consider the location of most of the development to be well located. Both Tangmere and Southbourne are outside the city, Southbourne by a distance of 6 miles. There is insufficient evidence to show that there will be any modal shift to alternative forms of transport than the car. Transport links are poor and the distances too great for most people to walk or cycle. Cycling links to the city from both Tangmere and Southbourne are poor. Public transport is irregular, infrequent and expensive.
