It is questionable if the bus and rail links could be described as good. There is a bus every half hour until early evening when it switches to one bus an hour to Chichester on the 700 route.
There is one train per hour in each direction which actually stops at Bosham Station.
The primary school is at capacity with no space for expansion. The GP surgery is only open part-time and again, is working at capacity.
The village currently has only one small shop.
We currently have 4 community halls within walking distance but another is being proposed here.
Policy A11 needs to be removed from the plan as the village is not capable of accommodating further growth because there is nothing sustainable about this. An additional 300 houses is neither wanted by local residents nor is it providing anything to enhance the village. There were hundreds of objections when planning permission for this site was proposed and it is the site which was the least favoured for development in the neighbourhood plan, which has been completely ignored.
