CPRE Sussex is supporting local residents in their fight to get a sane transport solution for Arundel and the surrounding communities. It highlights recent research by CPRE nationally which shows that new roads often don’t bring the traffic, congestion and economic benefits claimed. In fact in the longer term, they can actually make things worse.
CPRE Sussex is encouraging local people to have their say when the consultation on the A27 at Arundel begins sometime this summer, although with the General Election having been called, this may have slipped to the Autumn. It produced this insert for its last newsletter – the picture on the front showing the view that potentially could be damaged by the type of road Highways England has indicated it wants to build.
Anyone wanting to find out more is encouraged to come on the guided walk along the lone of the old ‘pink-blue’ route on Sunday, 18 June. Meet 10:30am at Dalloway Road, Arundel or contact arundelscate@gmail.com for more information.
