In relation to Active Travel continuity there should be better emphasis made on the east/west route along the A259, Known as CHEM route, which is part of the National Cycle Network, number 2. Travel to and from the railway station requires such improvements which are safe and segregated from vehicle traffic. Also travel to and from Secondary school would be enhanced by such improvements. Improvements for Active Travel on A259 should include where appropriate 20 MPH zones where the carriageway width is insufficient for one way cycle lanes, segregated from pedestrians on both sides of the road.
The main challenge to the provision of active travel improvements is the funding and therefore this DPD should require the proposed development should be required to fund them, either through Section 106 agreements, CIL contributions or through the A27 SPD contributions; in summary they should be a planning obligation. The provision of the new active travel bridge across the railway line and the A259 improvements should be completed by the completion of the hundredth house, so that new travel habits are assisted at the beginning of the development. Only with such Active Travel Provision can any modal shift be achieved and mitigation of vehicle movements enacted in line with the DPD objective set out in para. 4.7
Even more congestion on Stein Road and at mini roundabout with A259

There needs to be a clearly identified Cycle /pedestrian route from the new proposed railway crossing to the A259 at that intersection a new lights controlled crossing of the A259 is implemented.

The main challenge will be that Inlands Road will be totally grid blocked by the extra traffic if there is no new bridge.
