Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4436

Received: 16/03/2023

Respondent: Wisborough Green Parish Council

Representation Summary:

WGPC supports this approach but questions how it could be applied to Wisborough Green. It is inconceivable for WG to become more self-reliant in meeting local needs. The primary need is for food, and a small village shop fulfils basic requirements for some residents. The majority of residents are reliant upon car use to access shops in excess of 3 miles away. The nearest superstore, in Horsham, is 8.7 miles away.
There are no bus routes.
