Received: 04/02/2019

Respondent: Birdham Parish Council

Representation Summary:

There are no accepted proposals to improve traffic flow on the A27, apart from some improvements to junctions. Already condemned during the HE A27 consultation. Improvements funded by developers will take 15 years to complete
In addition, the A286 is a busy road at all times,especially during the summer, it becomes completely gridlocked. There have been 2 traffic fatalities in Birdham on the A286 in the last 2 years. Considerable loss of jobs from the peninsula over the last few years, so most residents of newly built houses using the A286 to travel to work, increasing the road burden.
