After 'If draft neighbourhood plans making provision for at least the minimum housing numbers of the relevant area have not made demonstrable progress the Council' a line should be added to say 'after checking deliverability with the parish council concerned'.

As set out in the Sustainability Appraisal (2023) and the Housing Distribution Background Paper (May 2024) the numbers for each parish are based on ensuring that there are sufficient sites, based on the HELAA, within the parish to meet the number given.

Please extend this paragraph to say 'which are often neither designed nor constructed to deal with the cumulative impact and increased maximum size and weight of the new traffic'.

There is no evidence on which to make the suggested assertion within the plan. Nonetheless, the traffic flows will be the subject of further assessment during the plan period through the monitor and manage framework, including the impact on the local road network.

We support this in principle. In practice, it needs to be noted that the uncertainty of when this can be achieved means that similar flexibility must be accepted in neighbourhood plans if these are to deliverable.

Neighbourhood Plans should act in general conformity with the Local Plan. Please see the Planning Policy Guidance for more information

Add 'The uncertainty of these constraints, the reduced efficiency of SUDS in such low-lying areas and the current concerns about Chichester Harbour make it unlikely that there would be much further sustainable
Development.'

Proposals will be assessed against the criteria to determine acceptability – the additional wording is unnecessary for a development management policy.

Fishbourne Parish Council is most concerned that the Stockbridge Link road is still even being considered when its environmental impact on the area and the huge financial cost would be totally unacceptable. The effect this Link Road would have on Fishbourne and the A259 has also not been considered.

The strategy set out in Policy T1 involves a strategy of sustainable transport and active travel interventions, as well as the potential for works to junctions on the Strategic Road Network. Any junction improvements or new roads could only come forward following detailed assessment and design work
