Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4702

Received: 17/03/2023

Respondent: Richard Badman

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

The plan as it relates to Loxwood is not sound due to the following reasons:
- lack of transport, only one bus a day and that is not at a convenient time
- the plan would result in a massive increase in vehicles on local roads which can only just cope now. Bear in mind that on the road into Guildford there are plans to build 1700+ house at Dunsfold
- currently no village shop
- primary school and doctors surgery not able to cope with additional users

Change suggested by respondent:

Much smaller increase in proposed new houses, bear in mind that recently planning permission has already been granted for 100 +/- new houses which are not included in plans proposals
