I strongly support Option A, namely to roll forward Policy EM8 in a similar form but acknowledging that the responsibility for the work is now in the name of the Rother Valley Railway with the line seen as extending from Robertsbridge to Bodiam. Good progress has already been made with the Eastern section of the original line having been extended from Bodiam to Junction Road, and the western section having been rebuilt from Robertsbridge Junction to Northbridge Street.
There are good economic benefits in reinstating the original railway between the present two sections.
