[Travel] A27 closed Tuesday 18/01/2022 evening for roadworks.

[Green Cross Code Man]

letter to residents says. please note. "Tuesdays closure will start after traffic level has reduced following the match at the Stadium" so probably about 10-45 - 11-00 pm

People will still be queuing at the Bridge at that point.

So is it being closed around 8pm after traffic has got to the ground?
or
after traffic leaves the ground?

Isn’t the clue in the wording ‘’following ……

Is it not a case of Sky: Jump
Any club: How high?

See also: Boxing Day.

BT Sport this time, but your point is the same.

No, not when it also says 'from 8pm'

You can see all the closure reports here: https://nationalhighways.co.uk/travel-updates/road-closure-report/

I know it seems weird for them to say 'Tuesday 8pm - 6am but will start after the traffic clears' but if you receive a letter from National Highways it actually says as 'Tuesday 18th and Wednesday 19th 8pm-6am' - it's going on over two nights, the argus is only talking about the one night, which removes the context.

The notes from Highways England in the letter says 'Tuesday's closure will start after the traffic levels have reduced following the match at the stadium' with a further general note about waiting for travel levels to reduce if there are events at the stadium on the dates for other planned activities. It seems the argus is using the general note. But for those wondering, it has been noted in that letter that Tuesday's works will start when the traffic reduces after the match.

Typical Argus clickbait.

No story in "Highways Agency delay roadworks on Tuesday night to allow fans to get home after rearranged Albion match" so this ambiguous scare mongering generates clicks on the site to find out more.

These roadworks are planned weeks in advance. It's the Albion who have scheduled a game when there are roadworks on the A27, rather than the Highways Agency scheduling works during a match

Did Brighton reschedule it or was it rescheduled for us well Chelsea actually?

Tuchel's moaning like hell about it, so it's not Chelsea's doing

The original fixture clashes with Chelsea's world club championship game so had to be moved. Premier league set the date for this one, not either club.

As a point of interest have Chelsea and their bare bones squad played many more games than us in the last month?

Will the Lewes Road between Falmer and Coldean Lane be open, I wonder?

it's been put up by Brighton and Hove busses fb page.. A27 westbound between Lewes and falmer will be closed from 8 p.m tues and weds nights......i guess the fact that it's only westbound won't affect Albion supporters too much.

I think going east or west a sizeable amount of people would be affected

The first closure will start AFTER fans leave the Amex.

So should be fine then.

Now does anyone else have Spurs as their next game in their ST wallet on their phone?
