KEY ISSUES                           TRANSPORT

LOCAL PLAN BASELINE
“Highways England agree the scale
of the schemes being proposed
support the level of development
proposed through the Local Plan”

IMPACT OF IKEA ON BASELINE

 74% of traffic will approach and
  leave to the east

 24% of traffic will approach and
  leave to the west

 AM morning peak
     Less traffic than proposed
       in the Local Plan

 PM Evening Peak
     Less than 1% increase i.e.
       To the West = 30 vehicles

                                             10

KEY ISSUES                              TRANSPORT

   Saturday’s flows on A27 are:

        70% lower than weekday
         AM peak

        IKEA Peak flows on a
         Saturday are 31% lower
         than weekday AM peak

 IKEA Southampton flows are
  lower than the figures we have
  used in our projections

 All Construction traffic will enter
  and leave the site via the A27

                                                11

KEY ISSUES                TRANSPORT

Bus Services

Bus Companies are
keen to extend services
to serve the site
including:

Extension of the
Stagecoach service
through to Shoreham

Extension of Pulse
service to serve IKEA

Cycle routes connect
Lancing with SDNP and
the Toll Bridge

                                  12

KEY ISSUES           FLOOD RISK

Flood Risks

 Fluvial or Tidal
  flooding

 Ground water

 Greenfield run-
  off and surface
  water

 To accurately
  assess the
  impact of each
  of these we
  have installed
  62 monitoring
  stations – 27
  water level
  recorders and
  monitors in 35
  boreholes

                              13

KEY ISSUES                      FLOOD RISK

Fluvial/Tidal Flooding

 There is no risk of Fluvial
  or Tidal Flooding

 The Shoreham Tidal wall
  is at 5.00 AOD

 NMF is constructing a
  bund along the western
  boundary at 5.4 AOD

                                         14

KEY ISSUES           FLOOD RISK – Current Situation

Currently:

Manor Close and
greenfield run-off
from the whole of
NMF discharge
to Southern
Outfall via
Lancing Ditches

Honeymans Hole
discharges to
Northern Outfall

Both Outfalls are
tide-locked for 6
hours each tide
cycle

                                                  15

KEY ISSUES                FLOOD RISK – After Development
Drainage Strategy
includes:

 Recreation of “Spring
  Line” along northern
  boundary to cut of
  groundwater

 Manor Close, IKEA
  and A27 all directed
  towards Northern
  Outfall

 Proposed new
  pumping station at
  Northern Outfall will
  allow discharge 24hrs
  per day

 Widening of culvert
  under northern
  section of Mash Barn
  Lane

 Measures will improve
  conditions in Manor
  Close catchment

                                                       16

KEY ISSUES                  FLOOD RISK – After Development

Drainage Strategy
includes:

 Residential surface
  water and greenfield
  run-off from Country
  Park only directed to
  Southern Outfall
  resulting in NO
  increase in flows to
  the south and will
  improve conditions for
  catchments south of
  the railway.

 Entire system
  designed to cater for 1
  in 100 year flood
  event + 40% increase
  caused by climate
  change.
