To Whom It May Concern

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN CAGNE understand that the CAA are currently consulting on surface access for airports and would like to participate concerning surface access issues at Gatwick Airport. Please find attached a document concerning the lack of surface access at Gatwick Airport and how the railway can not be expanded. We would like to add the figures below which have just been released to highlight the state of the single line railway that Gatwick sits on, and how it is under increasing pressure from natural growth without a second runway and 95m passengers annually. 'Growing populations and changing work and travel patterns have led to year-on-year increases at Horsham, Littlehaven, Faygate, Christ's Hospital, Warnham, Billingshurst, Pulborough and Amberley over the past two decades' reports the West Sussex County Times this week. Horsham MP and South Downs MP met rail officials and called the line and current service, 'abysmal throughout the region.' Stations - Faygate grew by 570 per cent increase Warnham increase of 490 per cent Littlehaven saw 96 per cent increase Horsham 95 per cent rise Billingshurst 87 per cent rise Pulborough 38 per cent rise Amberley 113 per cent rise Figures from Campaign for Better Transport These stations have to use roads and country lanes as car parks. If the Gatwick proposal is to be delivered they say that 1,000 homes will go to each parish, these stations will not be able to deal with additional increases on top of the natural growth and thus workers will be forced onto the roads**. The cost of rail travel will also prohibit workers from using the line (it is cheaper to fly to Europe from Gatwick than to travel to London by the Gatwick Express) as well as the fact that the line is already at its limit, unreliable, please see our surface access report. The recent poll stated that the Gatwick Express was found to be expensive by 37%*. *http://www.britalypost.com/oyster-and-contactless- payment-launched-at-gatwick/ ** Gatwick is accessed by one road, M23, that will be full by 2040 and joins the congested, four lane section of the M25. Gatwick feeder roads are already congested and have issues of pollution which Gatwick is not required to monitor. Yours faithfully Sally Pavey Chair of CAGNE .

Storrington, Sullington and Washington Neighbourhood Plan
Storrington, Sullington and Washington WASHINGTON PARISH COUNCIL Neighbourhood Plan Dear Sirs Storrington, Sullington & Washington Neighbourhood Plan: Sustainability Appraisal/Strategic Environmental Assessment Scoping Letter I set out below for your attention the proposed scope of the Sustainability Appraisal/Strategic Environmental Assessment (SA/SEA) to accompany the forthcoming Storrington, Sullington & Washington Neighbourhood Plan (SSWNP). This letter and its appendices should be regarded as the Scoping Report of the SSWNP in accordance with Stage A of the provisions of the Environmental Assessment of Plans & Programmes Regulations 2004 (which implement EU Directive 2001/42). As a statutory consultee in the Regulations you are invited to comment on this report and I would be grateful for your comment by 26th September 2014. Background The SSWNP is being prepared by the Storrington & Sullington Parish Council and Washington Parish Council as qualifying bodies under the 2012 Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations. In accordance with the 2004 Regulations 2004, the local planning authority, Horsham District Council, issued its formal screening opinion on 20 May 2014, concluding that an SEA is required and that it would prefer this is undertaken as part of a wider Sustainability Appraisal (SA/SEA). In its decision, the District Council has not made its reasons explicit for reaching this conclusion, but it is understood that the likely intention of the SSWNP to contain policies allocating land for development is the primary reason. A third of the designated area lies within the South Downs National Park and there are no European sites within the area, although the area does lie within the 15km buffer zone of the Arundel Valley SAC/SPA/Ramsar site.

Warnham Parish
Warnham Parish HDC SHELAA Housing Land Report by Parish, December 2018 Warnham Parish The following sites have been considered as part of the December 2018 SHELAA Housing Land Assessment. A map depicting the entire site area and summary of each site assessment is included on the following pages. Please note that the classification of a site is based on the classification of the developable area within that site, therefore if part of a site is considered ‘developable’ 6‐10 years, the whole site would be coloured yellow, however in reality only part of that site may be considered suitable for development. The outcome of the assessment for Warnham Parish is summarised as follows: SHELAA Site Name Site Address Outcome of Total Reference Assessment Units SA163 Warnham Glebe & Vicarage Church Street, Warnham Green (1-5 years 14 Deliverable) SA368 Land at Northlands Road Northlands Road, Warnham Green (1-5 years 6 Deliverable) SA070 Land north of Bell Road Bell Road, Warnham Yellow (6-10 Years 20 Developable) SA071 Land south of Bell Road Bell Road, Warnham Yellow (6-10 Years 20 Developable) SA015 Land at Upper Westbrook Warnham Not Currently Developable 0 Farm SA029 Land at Rowhook Hill West of Stane Street Cottages, Not Currently Developable 0 Rowhook SA459 Land East of Kingsfold Kingsfold Not Currently Developable 0 SA528 The Dog and Duck PH Dorking Road, Kingsfold Not Currently Developable 0 SA563 Land East of Dorking Road, Dorking Road, Kingsfold Not Currently Developable 0 Kingsfold SA564 Land to the east of Tuggles Tuggles Plat, Warnham
