No New Arundel Bypass
Please don't support a new bypass at Arundel. There is local support for online improvements, combined with investment and improvements to public transport, to improve congestion.
Why is this important?
Any route of a new road will be hugely damaging to the environment, cutting through farmland and ancient woodland, or damaging Binsted village and part of Walberton. This is countryside that has been labelled too precious to lose by previous government. The road will cause more pollution and it will also cause new congestion - it has been proved that new roads bring more traffic. We believe that local people would prefer the traffic problems here to be solved by other means which are achievable and would provide an acceptable compromise.
