The Masterplan for Southern Gateway must be retained in its original 2017 vision and then improved. The vision of the masterplan by CDC made fundamental improvements to Chichester. More uses, higher density, reduction in the use of cars are not ambitious enough. There are many other areas where community improvements can be gained together with good affordable housing, traffic realignment, green route to Northgate, bus stops, innovation centre, music venue and local government HQ hub. Some require subsidies through CIL/S106. This can only be achieved with a comprehensive masterplan with all developers contributing to the wider good of the masterplan.
