I drove from Brighton to Newhaven about 9.30 this morning and although bad, it was nowhere near as bad as coming the other way, solid from Rottingdean all the way back almost to Newhaven. It's like Peacehaven has been completely cut off from civilisation
This pot hole just keeps getting patched, as you know this section of the road is really bad. I’m not sure if there is any plans for night closures to resurface this part.
Oi, I heard that!
Conveniently near Kwik Fit….suspicious
I don’t know why we’re surprised: this is surely another strand of Southern Water’s strategy to p1ss off its customers. Not content with putting us off using the rivers, the sea, the beaches and (coming soon) watering the roses, they sabotage the main coastal road. Zelensky could surely make good use of their destructive capabilities. And while I’m in the mood……today yet another set of works started on the Falmer Road on outskirts of Rottingdean. Yet again they’re digging a hole only in the grass verge but the road is closed on one side simply so they can park their ‘kin van. I could go on but it would be bad for my blood pressure.
Any idea how much longer than normal the buses are taking? There are bus lanes for parts of the route, which must help. I'm interested as I have to get to Seaford early on Saturday, and this might still be going on.
I left 80 minutes to get from Saltdean to North Street and I got there in 45. Not much fun, but doable. Going the otherway towards Seaford is no bother atm.
I dont unfortunately - sorry! Expect that early Sat AM will be OK though and not take too much longer than normal
I remember Peacehaven to Brighton London Rd taking up to an hour in the morning in term time.
The temporary lights in Rottingdean have gone so that should help.
No. Should be easy at that time
During numerous previous day time snarl ups I can never recall any impacting at that time, I’d have no concerns
