Whilst the Conservancy cannot Object to the Wildlife Corridors, it is really disappointing that they are not more ambitious with greater geographical coverage. Given that the Council has set the parameters for considering future development proposals therein NE4, there was no need to restrict them in quite such a way. Where are the east-west links? Where are the corridors across the Manhood Peninsula, connecting Pagham Harbour, Medmerry and Chichester Harbour? What is proposed is a starter for 10, but we living in a biodiversity crisis, so I think we needed a bit more coverage than the proposed.
