After many months of hard work, the Cycling Design Guide is now part of the mandatory reference material for Local Planning Authorities and WSCC Officers. It is here - https://www.westsussex.gov.uk/media/13164/cycling_design_guide.pdf
Specifically written for our County, the Guide is for Local Planning Authorities who consult WSCC for advice on any road and transport issues that affect proposals submitted for planning permission. They then take WSCC's recommendations into account when making a decision on a planning application. Before a Local Planning Authority submits a planning application, WSCC can provide advice on road and transport issues associated with any proposed development. The full list is at https://www.westsussex.gov.uk/roads-and-travel/information-for-developers/pre-application-advice-for-roads-and-transport/#additional-information
The WSCF is very appreciative of the effort and time put in by many at WSCC and those in the WSCF and the LPAs. However, special recognition must go to Andy Mouland without whom it simply would not exist.
