Rottingdean Traffic & Air Pollution
The effect of air pollution on health is well documented, especially for children and elderly residents. There are two schools within 100 metres of Rottingdean High Street's AQMA and Rottingdean has an above average number of elderly residents. Pollution is responsible for over 40,000 deaths every year in the UK. It also causes a multitude of severe chronic illnesses. Quote from B&HCC Air Quality Action Plan: “The contribution of cars and vans to the ambient NO2 is more substantial in Rottingdean High Street, than anywhere else in the City Council area.” This petition is submitted by SAFE, Rottingdean’s campaign group, in conjunction with Rottingdean Parish Council, on behalf of the residents of Rottingdean village.
