So we have a National Park announcement at last!
They are excluding Arundel for some reason, but including the castle.
From an eco-town point of view the boundary is close to the proposed new rail station and the eco-town would very much be in the sight-lines of the National Park so it is one more reason to say No to the new town.
That said, the excluded area might accommodate an it's necessary/no it isn't/yes it is by-pass at some stage but still leaves issues relating to how/where a by-pass reconnects to the A27 in the West which could again impact any development in this area if the by-pass remains a pre-requisite

Given that the original 2002 boundary has been re-drawn north of Arundel, it does seem most likely that this is to accommodate the provision of a by-pass to the South.
However, as Binsted Wood and Park plus Tortington common are included in the plan, it is - as you point out - difficult to see where a by-pass could be built.
Puzzling!
