The Master Plan is not fit for purpose.
Report by cllr Paul Brown.
Green Party campaigners are not satisfied that the Haywards Heath Town Centre Master Plan does enough for local residents. The plan should be bolder on tackling climate change to reduce greenhouse gases. Low-traffic neighbourhoods are needed to cut air pollution to protect everyone’s health and well-being. Public consultation closed on 21st December. Why did WSCC, who are responsible for roads, not contribute? Why were bus operators, Metrobus and Compass not invited to participate? Proposals to narrow South Road and close the Broadway gyratory without dealing with on-street parking will create chaos. We question proposals to build a multi-storey car park which will just promote more use of cars.
