Not particularly. Average time to travel by car in either direction at 08.30 and 17.30 would be more interesting ... over to you

I was thinking about the individual bits ... I'd imagine Saltdean to Newhaven could be a bit of a nightmare at 5.30

It is horrendous. The jam all the way back to Roedean / Ovingdean roundabout starts building at 4.15pm. Then it’s stop start, snails pace all the way to Seaford.

100’s drivers get so fed up, they do a 4 mile loop via Ovingdean Village, back to Rottingdean, to simply avoid the first half mile of it. Not sure if that makes any difference, but it gives the feel of momentum!

Disagree. It's usually ok. He was talking about Saltdean to Newhaven but the main jam is usually before that in Rottingdean.

I have family and colleagues who live in your part of the world, as well as Rottingdean and Telscombe Cliffs, lifelong. They dread it. Some are able to flex their day making sure they get to Rottingdean by 4, another one does the 4 mile loop via Ovingdean Village just to get a feeling of keep on driving.
