Massive Tree Blocks A259 in East Sussex – Drivers Face Major Delays
Travellers in East Sussex are in for a nightmare as the A259 is shut both ways between Ore (B2093) and Rye (B2089). A huge 40-foot tree has crashed onto the carriageway, causing chaos on this vital route.

A specialist team is on the scene working flat out to remove the towering tree and reopen the road. They’re racing against time to minimise disruption and get traffic flowing again safely.
Traffic Diversions and Delay Warnings
All traffic is being rerouted through local roads in both directions. Drivers are warned to follow diversion signs carefully and expect significant delays. Alternative routes are clogged as frustrated commuters face longer journey times.
