Chichester City has a small population for the wide range of services and facilities provided in the city which makes focussing major development in the city appropriate. In order to ensure the city thrives as a key destination and commercial centre more affordable housing needs to be built within the city and close surrounds, partially attracting young people and families. The east/west corridor has good access onto the A27, the main arterial road in the district, and public transport in contrast to communities in the Manhood Peninsula which have restricted access. Peninsula also contains important internationally designated habitat areas.
