Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

The Burgess Hill Place and Connectivity Programme (PCP) sits within the Mid Sussex Growth Programme and is considered as one of the most ambitious programmes in the region. The programme continues to attract significant investment from both private and public sectors, transforming Burgess Hill through the delivery of 5000 new homes and new commercial space, and through supporting social, education, highway, transport, and public realm infrastructure. The PCP has already delivered approximately 11km of off-highway and Public Rights of Way pedestrian and cycle improvements through the Growth Deal’s partnership work with Mid Sussex District Council (MSDC). Further improvements, such as more mobility corridors through Homes England, flagship Northern Arc and further PCP phases, are being delivered by West Sussex County Council (WSCC) in 2022/23. It will also unlock new high value jobs in technology-led industries through the construction of a network of new and improved pedestrian and cycle routes linking key destinations and activity generators.

Mid Sussex is already experiencing the benefits of the programme with the £23 million A2300 Dualling scheme open to the public. The project, which was unveiled in April 2022, provides significant highway capacity and safety improvements between major growth areas including Homes England-led Northern Arc and A23 corridor.

Through £2.1m Local Government Funding, the PCP also supports the design and delivery of additional pedestrian, cycle and Public Right of Way improvements within the corridor. Therefore, enhancing the connectivity between strategic development sites and pedestrian and cycle network within the town including:

• A2300 Additional Pedestrian and Cycle Links

• Burgess Hill Western Gateway, Burgess Hill Station and Wivelsfield Station Improvements

• Victoria Business Park Access and Connectivity Improvements

• Church Road and Church Walk Public Realm Improvements.


Thank you for your patience during these works.
