Residents of Pulborough have come together to protest against the closure of the A29, which has split their community in two after a landslide in December 2022. The protest, which took place on Sunday, saw residents using the hashtag #FixTheA29 to express their frustration at the lack of information about when the road will be reopened.

One of the organisers of the protest spoke to the media and said that the road closure was causing immense difficulty and vast expense for the community and businesses. They added that the lack of information about when the road will reopen is making the situation even worse. Residents were also asked to provide information about how much the road closure has cost them personally and their businesses so that they can send an ‘invoice’ to West Sussex County Council, which residents claim is fully to blame for this debacle.
