Victoria Road, Worthing & Footpath off Tortington Lane, Arundel - Temporary Closures
What is happening?
West Sussex County Council
(Worthing: Victoria Road) (Temporary Closure) Order 2025
NOTICE is hereby given that not less than 7 days from the date of this notice, WSCC intends to make an Order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, the effect of which will be to temporarily close Victoria Road in Worthing throughout its entire length. The road closure is needed to allow gas mains to be replaced in safety.
The Order will come into effect on 27 October 2025 and remain in force until 20 February 2026. Once made, the Order may remain in force for up to 18 months, or until the proposed works are completed, whichever is earlier.
During the operative periods of this Order the road will be closed in short sections as works progress along its length. Alternative routes for vehicles will be indicated on site. Access to properties on the affected length of road will be maintained at all times.
Any queries about the effect of the Order on traffic using the highway should be directed to the WSCC Contact Centre, telephone number 01243 642105. Ref: TTRO-2572- MM
(Arundel: Public Footpath 342)
(Temporary Restriction of Use) Order 2025
NOTICE is hereby given that WSCC has made an Order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, the effect of which will be to temporarily prohibit equestrians and cyclists from using Public Footpath 342 in Arundel, from its junction with Tortington Lane, westwards to its junction with public footpath 3402.
The road closure is needed because the status of the route has been upgraded to a bridleway, but a footbridge on the route needs to be upgraded before the route is safe for use by equestrians and cyclists.
The Order continues the effect of a previously issued closure notice and will come into effect on 14 October 2025. It is expected to remain in force for 6 months, after which time an extension may be necessary.
Unfortunately, during the operative periods of this Order no direct alternative route is available using the public rights of way network.
Any queries about the effect of the Order should be directed to the WSCC Public Rights of Way Team, telephone number 01243 777620. Ref: TTRO-2639- MM
