The identification of Bexhill to accommodate additional housing is assessed in the Councils "Housing Delivery in Bexhill and Hastings" and its "Transport Study" undertaken in June and July 2013.The Housing Delivery report concluded. "A number of benchmarks would indicate that it will be challenging to consistently deliver more than 200 homes pa, year in year out, both because of market capacity; and the potential impact on sales values of new homes, if the market is relatively oversupplied, since this will act as a deterrent to high volumes of new building". Bexhill has only twice in the last 20 years delivered 200 units plus pa.

The Councils LDF Sensitivity Assessment( July 2013) into the impact of various combinations of development in Bexhill Hasting area concluded that the main capacity constraint in the local Glyne Gap area is the A259 Glyne Gap link. The greater scale of housing in each of the scenarios assessed inevitably generates more traffic on the local network, which will have detrimental effects leading to some junctions on the A259 operating over capacity by 2028.For each of the scenarios assessed, congestion is visible at junctions along the major routes through the urban areas. Congestion in Bexhill occurs at some arms of junctions, notably along the A259 west of the town centre and also on a section of the A259.

The report states that there are "apparent capacity issues with the A259 west of town centre and suggests further modelling is required. That work will need to be undertaken with the Highway Agency who are responsible for the A259 west of town centre. "Subject to this,the implications for housing may be to limit the scale of housing served by the A259 west of the town centre".

Congestion in Hasting is centred along the A259 , around Baldslow and junctions along B2159 and A21 through Hollington. This combined with the English Nature objections to development at Breadsell Farm makes the Council figure of 250 dwellings unjustified and ineffective and this figure should therefore be removed.
