Stubbington Bypass
The planning application for the £30 million Stubbington bypass has been submitted to Hampshire County Council. It involves:
- the construction of a new road linking Titchfield Road to Gosport Road
- improvement works to Titchfield Road and Gosport Road
- new or improved junctions at Titchfield Gyratory, Bridge Street, Peel Common Roundabout and Peak Lane at Titchfield Road/Gosport Road
The £30 million bypass will:
- divert traffic around the outskirts of Stubbington and reduce journey time and peak hour congestion onto and off the Gosport peninsula
- remove transport barriers to growth and encourage investment and regeneration
- improve connectivity and provide additional road network resilience
Newgate Lane South
In addition a planning application has also been submitted for improvements to Newgate Lane South. It involves the construction of:
- a new southern section of Newgate Lane to provide a new connection to Peel Common
- a junction and link road to access the existing route of Newgate Lane
Both applications and all the supporting documentation can be viewed online (Stubbington Bypassand Newgate Lane South) or during office hours at Fareham Borough Council and the County Council’s head office in Winchester.
