Agree that the development of this site should be through a comprehensive masterplan.

QUESTION 37: Which of the development options for Northeye do you prefer? Should other options be considered?

Representation ID: 23499

Received: 20/02/2017

Respondent: East Sussex County Council

Representation Summary:

All four options would generate additional traffic, impacting on the A259, which suffers from significant traffic congestion in peak hours.

However, with Bexhill being a key growth area, it is recognised that the development of this site will support local economic growth. Development options 1 (employment led) & 2 (residential led) would be more favourable, but it is essential that any policy includes the need to accommodate improvements to the A259 to provide a suitable access onto the strategic road network along with providing transport choice for pedestrians, cyclists and public transport users, in line with Core Strategy policy TR1.

-Preferred Site: Northeye (Former United Arab Emirates - Technical Training Project), Bexhill (Ref: BX101)

The four options for development proposed at this site would all, to some degree, generate additional traffic, impacting on the nearby A259, which currently suffers from significant traffic congestion in peak hours.

However, with Bexhill being a key growth area for the County, it is recognised that the development of this site will support local economic growth. In terms of the options presented, development options 1 (employment led) & 2 (residential led) would be more favourable, but it would be essential that any policy associated with this site includes the need to accommodate improvements to the A259 to provide a suitable access onto the strategic road network along with providing transport choice for pedestrians, cyclists and public transport users, as in alignment with Core Strategy policy TR1.
