Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP) phase 2 consultation
We are developing a Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP), with support from Ethos consultants, to make active travel safer and easier across the district.
An LCWIP is a long-term plan which identifies where improvements are needed to support walking, wheeling and cycling.
We are seeking feedback on the draft LCWIP following our Phase 1 consultation earlier this year, which gathered views from the public and stakeholders to help shape the plan.
We would like to know whether we have identified the right routes, whether there are important connections that are missing and whether there are local issues or opportunities we should consider before the final document is prepared.
Take part in the consultation
The Phase 2 consultation on the draft Arun LCWIP will run from Monday 29 June to Sunday 9 August 2026.

Arun Active Travel Study 2020
Arun District Council commissioned 2020 Consultancy Solutions Ltd to undertake an Active Travel Study for the district (not including those areas within the South Downs National Park).
Active Travel focuses on modes of transport which require physical activity, such as walking (including wheelchair use), cycling, horse-riding.
The aim of the study is to identify how active travel networks currently work in the district. The study identifies routes where visitors and residents of the district can walk and cycle to key destinations such as shops, leisure and places of work, as conveniently as possible, to reduce car use and improve health and wellbeing. It also identifies an approach to improve active travel networks in the district, connect missing links and make links where there is an identified deficit.
An online survey was made available, alongside the Active travel consultation leaflet[pdf] 659KB and the consultation summary report can be viewed here: Arun Active Travel Consultation feedback report [pdf] 7MB
The final Active Travel Report 2020 [pdf] 31MB with final study appendices [pdf] 4MB sets out the five priority ATS routes in Arun together with the other assessed Active Travel Routes which will inform development management decisions and future plan making.
Arun Local Plan Transport Mitigation Package - Evidence Base Updates (ADC/WSCC, 2019)
In 2019, the council commissioned technical work, with West Sussex County Council, to investigate two elements of the Arun Local Plan transport mitigation package in more detail. This included a more detailed design report focusing on the A259 junctions at Comet Corner and Oystercatcher; and an analysis of the impact of the Local Plan's Strategic Housing Allocations on key junctions in the district. Consultants, WSP were commissioned to undertake the work, and the final reports are available below:

Arun Transport Apportionment Model September 2022 Update (Costs and Contributions)
West Sussex County Council have updated the mitigation scheme costs (taking into account inflation and any design changes).Contributions secured (benefitting from planning permission and s.106 agreement) from Strategic Developments have also been allowed for. The documents below will be used by Planners as a starting point in Strategic Housing Allocation S.106 discussions and supersede those 2020 documents placed in the Archive for information, further below.

Arun Transport Model Phase 1 - Local Model Validation Report
The A259 Local Model Validation Report (approved by National Highways) can be found here: Arun Transport Model-A259 and district-wide [pdf] 10MB.
The whole district is within the calibrated/validated study area rather than just the A259 corridor between Chichester and Littlehampton (and parallel/connecting routes including A27/A284 and A29, B2233 and B2259). The model is available for third parties including developers to access for testing of proposals.
