Paragraph 3.9 mentions the significance, and the long-term nature of the development at North Bexhill and lends itself to a comprehensive transport strategy from the outset. HA suggests that a joint transport strategy covering all of Bexhill and Hastings should be developed, with a view to identifying workable and deliverable measures to increase the proportion of travel by sustainable means and to manage down travel, particularly by car.

It notes that the A21 Baldslow Junction scheme is on target for a Ministerial decision in early 2008 and delivery by 2011.
