  • Lyminster Bypass
    Ref No: HT 16 (15/16) Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport Key Decision: Yes Lyminster Bypass (north) - Approval to undertake Part I statutory processes to acquire land for scheme construction Electoral Report by Executive Director Residents’ Services Divisions: and Director of Highways and Transport Arundel & Wick and Littlehampton Town Executive Summary West Sussex County Council is promoting the delivery of the Lyminster Bypass scheme, which involves the design and construction of a new bypass of the A284 Lyminster Road between Lyminster village and Toddington Nurseries to the north of Littlehampton. This scheme will form the northern section of a new 1.8km bypass of the A284 between Lyminster village and the A259 Worthing Rd to the south. The southern section (between A259 and Toddington Nurseries) is being delivered separately by developers. The bypass will provide strategic north-south access to Littlehampton for residents and businesses by improving accessibility and connectivity to the A27 at Crossbush, while addressing congestion and journey time reliability issues caused by the level crossing at Wick. Safety benefits will also be realised by removing traffic from the existing congested route through Lyminster and Wick. The route of the bypass has been safeguarded under Policy DEV15 of the Arun District Local Plan which was adopted in 2003 and was previously adopted by WSCC as an approved highway line in September 1992. The total scheme cost estimate is £9.27m and is being funded as follows: • Developer Contributions: £3.76m • Coast to Capital Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP): £3m • West Sussex County Council: £2.51m £1.372m of developer contributions has been received by WSCC and £0.525m of this amount has been spent on scheme preparation.

The key strengths of Arundel are the community spirit (evidenced by the many many clubs, groups and societies providing a mix of education, sport and leisure to residents), its location on the Downs, straddling the river Arun and close to the sea and finally its heritage mixed with contemporary culture. It is easy to see the town through ‘rose tinted’ glasses, only see the positives or only those that we want to see and thus not appreciate the need for change. We did not need to carry out the recent workshops and focus groups to know that there are also areas which could be improved upon: Parking; dominance of cars; ‘two halves’; busy A27; rat running; shortage of affordable housing and a concern that with the loss of the banks (as well as other changes to the High Street generally) Arundel is no longer the important market town it once was.

  • 141106 Letter to Walberton Residents on Arundel Bypass
    THE RT HON NICK HERBERT MP House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA [email protected] ! 7 November 2014 ! ARUNDEL BYPASS I thought it would be helpful to update Walberton, Binsted and Fontwell residents about the possibility of an Arundel bypass and A27 improvements. An Arundel bypass was first proposed in 1985, and was elevated to the Conservative Government’s main roads programme in 1996, but was shelved by the Labour Government after 1997. The ‘South Coast Multi Modal Study’ in 2002 confirmed the need for it, but there was no movement until the current Government produced its National Infrastructure Plan. Last year the Government published plans for a £69 million upgrade to the Chichester bypass and a feasibility study to look at problems on the A27 on the south coast, including Arundel and Worthing, identified as one of six of “the most notorious and long standing hotspots in the country”. The Department of Transport has set up a reference group for the A27 feasibility studies in West Sussex, which is attended by me and Tim Loughton MP, amongst many others. At the penultimate meeting of the group we were shown a powerpoint presentation of a number of possible options for Arundel. The 'online' route proposals, which would approximately follow the existing route through the Town, involving part tunnelling, would be prohibitively costly. I am also aware that a dual carriageway dividing Arundel would be deeply unpopular and is not supported by the Town Council. I therefore welcome the fact that these routes are not expected to be taken forward. Two 'offline' routes are under consideration.

    The Monthly Newsletter of the village of Burpham & Wepham Your Village Website: http//Burpham.arun.gov.uk/main.cfm Friends of Burpham Church: [email protected] From the Vicarage, May 2016 Dear Fri ends, May is the month that sees the Village Festival. To some extent May Festivals belong to the past, as many customs died out as people moved from the country to the towns to work in the new factories. However some aspects, particularly the dancing, are still enjoyed thanks to a revival in recent years. There is still, in some parts, dancing round the Maypole. Long coloured ribbons are tied to the top of the Maypole and held by the dancers. The dancers then all weave in and out and plait the ribbons. Then – provided they have learnt their steps properly – the ribbons are unplaited. It is surprising that Morris Men are still allowed in this age of emancipation – but they are. Dress may vary, but most wear hats with ribbons, and carry large hankies or a stick – and they do it with ‘Bells On!!’ On their legs, that is. Stamping, and kicking, causes these bells to jingle wildly. The origins of this was the belief that the noise would drive evil spirits out of the ground and ensure a good harvest, and in all probability developed from Folk Dances. These are dances that have been performed, sometimes for hundreds of years, which have their own particular characteristics. The more unusual ones include the Britannia Coconut Dancers at Bacup, Lancashire. In a gloriously politically insensitive way, these dancers blacken their faces, wear red and black skirts over black britches, and clap wooden discs as they dance.
