12X then quick change on Western Rd isn't bad, train so expensive compared to bus, £210 for 3 months on bus, something north of £400 for train equivalent I believe.

If only there was some kind of map-based search engine page or a smartphone/tablet app that could calculate it for you... ???

As per #post 2

40 minutes on a good run (which turn off - Dyke Road or Hangleton?)

I would say this is quite optimistic. The commute from west of Newhaven to Woodingdean generally took half an hour to 45 minutes. To Seaford you've got to add an extra queue going past Lewes OR through Newhaven and an extra queue going into Seaford plus an extra queue at the Hove end and more miles.

I used to work in *Portslade so took the Hangleton turnoff and could do it in 45 mins on a good run (I did say a good run) The earlier you set off the easier it is.
Why would you go through Newhaven? The A26 is easier.


*Actually, I worked the Boundary Rd side so technically it was Hove.

Use something like Waze. If you set future time it'll give you a fairly good estimate

There's always a queue now from Kingston which often goes right through to Beddingham.

If you leave at 6:30am, you should just about miss the congestion from Peacehaven through to Rottingdean in the mornings. Any later it is crap.
