Road closures: five for Chichester drivers over the next fortnight

Drivers in and around Chichester will have five National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

And one of them is expected to cause delays of between 10 and 30 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that two closures already in place are expected to carry on this week:

• A27, from midnight, September 19 2022 to 11.59pm July 28 2023, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A27 northbound and southbound, at Bognor Road roundabout, Speed restrictions and roundabout and approaches for off network works on A259.

• A27, from 9am May 22 to midnight, November 4, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A27 both directions Tangmere to Bognor roundabout, narrow lanes and 50mph speed restriction for construction of new bridge.

And a further three closures will begin over the next two weeks:

• A27, from 8am July 17 to 4pm July 22, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A27 eastbound and westbound, Chichester Bypass, diversion for West Sussex County Council works.

• A27, from 8pm July 20 to 6am July 21, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): A27 clockwise Harts Farm Way Roundabout, carriageway and lane closure for drainage works.

• A27, from 8pm July 21 to 6am July 22, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A27 both directions Fontwell to Tangmere, Lane closure for central reservation works.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
