Lewes District Council & East Sussex COUNTY Council are set to spend £50,000 to look into how to tackle bottlenecks on the A259

​In a recent move the government has recognised the A259 road between Chichester and Eastbourne as a ''major route''.

With a £50,000 budget proposal already being put forward by East Sussex County Council & Lewes District Council to look into easing the congestion on the coast road in our area, there is now the opportunity, with the roads newly 'upgraded status', for the councils to bid for the £3.5 Billion government funding to further in the development of resolving the long standing traffic issues on the road. 

£50,000 for investigation into improving the A259

£50,000 has been earmarked by Lewes council to investigate how to tackle congestion bottlenecks on the A259, it has been announced today (February 26). The district council says it is committed to improving traffic flow along the coast road - which received a boost recently when the A259 between Chichester and Eastbourne was recognised as a "major route" by the government and Transport for the South East.
