LETTER: A27 now is half of a ring road
Much is being made of ‘The Community’ agreeing on the best scheme, but I would like to point out there is no single community; rather, many communities with needs that may on some issues coincide, but in this case are almost certain to conflict.
Ultimately, the solution will have to come from our good councillors and politicians.

In the majority of cases those problems were eased by the construction of a ring road. Perhaps we should regard the current A27 as the southern half of Chichester’s ring road, and as such it is fit for purpose.
All we need to complete the ring road is the northern half.
Which wouldn’t, as some readers have suggested, mean the end of the many successful and popular activities hosted by Goodwood Estates.
