True because our actual fertility rate is a shrinking population at 1.8 births per women.
Need for housing is also a change in how we live. Gone are the family homes and sticking around until marriage, we now have more people wishing to own their homes rather than effectively sharing with...
No amount of removing lights or crossing points will change the congestion from Lancing through Worthing. The hold up spots just hold up traffic getting to the next hold up spot.
Heaven forbid a granny or children should need to cross near a school, how dare they! :rant:
Did you watch Flat Pack Empire on BBC? Think it is still on iPlayer. Thought it was actually quite interesting regardless of you views on their product. Of course yes they have a profit to make, but how they go about it and the ethos that underlines that is quite interesting and different to how...
I wouldn't know. But 600 houses and an Ikea, school, community centre, huge outlay in getting this to planning and pulling the deal together. I doubt the club have done this out of philanthrophy.
I think the 'vote for this = not getting elected again' sways some councillor's minds in these situations. Not like a party whip turns up to pull them inline behind policy.
Long term yes. Short term there will be a link to the Lancing Training Ground access road, and a road further up, however these will become 'emergency vehicle' access only once the development is completed. So that is 600 houses, the Ikea and the proposed country park all accessed onto the A27...
The 2 exits from that small roundabout bottom left are the housing and the Ikea. The next roundabout connects the existing airport road to this junction, the larger roundabout connects it all to the A27.
The design manual is just that, a manual. If you've got the data you wanted which is easily achieved under the guidance, then you can design a junction without a specific set of road users in mind. They've gone at this with the assumption that there isn't much demand to Coombes, and they've...
To be fair Notters, they've not been paid to support a major planning application. The extrapolated data to record weekdays, weekends, and the time of year should have been undertaken by the applicant. It is no good complaining about the quality of an objector's data if the originally supplied...
Wren Kitchens: don’t use their fitters, appliances or worktops. The basic kitchens are fine and good value. They subcontract fitting and worktops so find your own fitter at a fraction of the price and source your worktops locally, templates once the kitchen is in. As with any large volume...
This could easily get refused at committee as many ‘recommended’ applications do. Councilors are notorious for bottling a decision on an application with heated local opposition - it’s their voters remember. Wouldn’t be that surprising if they refused it with the mindset of letting the Planning...
