East Wittering

The possible development of 1213 new homes is unsustainable for many reasons. The key points for me are:
No amount of tweaking the road layout in the immediate area of the new development can change the fact that there is only one road to the peninsula. This road is already congested and very slow at peak times and stationary for hours at a time in the summer when tourists flock to the area.

At a time when we increasingly recognise the vital role 'wildlife' plays and the delicate balance of their ecosystem this constant destruction of their habitat is, quite frankly, shortsighted and plain stupid.

Unless you truly believe that people will not need to travel off the peninsula for services, employment, healthcare, education, entertainment this proposal for a potential 1213 new homes simply does not make sense. The peninsula cannot continue to function for residents or tourists with so much extra demand on an already inadequate infrastructure.

The Health Centre in East Wittering is already stretched beyond reasonable capacity levels. Adding the number of proposed houses can only exacerbate these problems and can only have serious repercussions for residents.
