Representation Summary:

We believe that for sustainability reasons as well as public policy reasons the proposal to put a station at Glyne Gap should be in then plan. Even with the BHLR there will be substantial traffic around the Glyne Gap area and a positive proposal to use and enhance existing public transport facilities should be grasped. Previous studies have shown pollution levels on De La Warr Road are high. Post BHLR they will still be high, enhanced by increased traffic to the revamped shopping area. So public transport access is absolutely needed.
