Crash Chaos Brings Newhaven Flyover to Halt
Traffic ground to a halt on the Newhaven flyover at lunchtime on Thursday. A two-car collision sparked gridlock, snarling the usually busy route.
Emergency Crews Rush to Scene
Emergency services arrived swiftly, closing the flyover. Drivers were forced to take a detour via the railway level crossing and The Drove in both directions. The diversion clogged up local streets and added up to an hour to journeys.
Lessons in Delays: Avoid the Area
SussexTW confirmed the road finally reopened at 2:33pm, but not before causing serious delays. Motorists were urged to steer clear of Newhaven during the incident to dodge gridlocked backstreets.
