Dr Anthony Seldon's comments on Shoreham harbour coincide precisely with those contained in "The Graham Moss Vision" of improvements to Shoreham harbour, which have, subject to sympathetic development and care of the harbour's environs, been supported by our association, including the monorail from Shoreham to Brighton.

Little of this is possible without a new access to the harbour, housed in a tunnel to take both harbour and commercial traffic out of west Hove, Portslade, Fishersgate and Southwick, to the bypass (A27).

Mr Moss also suggested the A259 should become a local road, not a through highway - that is, an extension to Dr Seldon's vision of the pedestrianised Kings Road, although not completely pedestrianised.

As this vision has been also supported by Brighton and Hove City Council, Adur District Council, the Port Authority, West Sussex County Council and Seeda, our members await with interest future developments.
