Thanks for this update - there's a post below (#28) which seems to imply it's open today....

If they have any sense they will run the Mill Road buses a different route - maybe down through Withdean and up Carden Avenue.
The issues on A27 Eastbound are when the traffic from the A23 tries to join. However, I can also see the exit slip at Patcham being blocked as people won't be able to get onto the roundabout. As that part and the exit to Hollingbury always queue on a matchday, especially for evening kick offs, that is going to be a nightmare tonight. Westbound it has been the queues on the slip roads queuing back onto the A27 that has been causing delays.

AA Traffic currently showing it free running westbound, awful eastbound between the A27 just after Hangleton and the Hollingbury turn off.

What’s really annoying is there isn’t a works person to be seen not even plant machinery, it’s a disgrace
Coming from Worthing, it feels like a decision about where to get off the A27.
The best approach feels like getting off at Holmbush, taking the Old Shoreham Road all the way to London Road and then cutting up to Lewes Road.
Or is there something better?

Says A27 closed westbound between Coldean Lane and Devils Dyke after 8pm tonight. If I'm reading it right.

I've just told the person I normally go with to head to race course p&r tonight (he normally parks at mine and comes to mill road). However, I'm still a 'walk up' to mill road p&r.
I wonder how much time I should leave tonight? I normally get to mill road 45 mins - 1 hr before kickoff

or come all the way along the coast to rottingdean and head north through woodingdean. Pass the Amex and join the A27 west bound to the bridge!
It’s that or the coast road to Marina, and come up through Woodingdean. Or along to Ovingdean and join the A27 westbound that way. Either way not fun.

Surely dwayne can lend some of you his helicopter?
Does sound like the route that is most likely not to get caught in local rush hour traffic.

So westbound back to London post game, what are the options to get back to A23?

Any of this been communicated by the club at all?
It's mentioned in the pre-match brief email that arrived about an hour ago.

They’ve mentioned the east bound lane closure but nothing about westbound after the game.
