West Sussex County Council confirmed that the highways team will be adjusting ironwork, resurfacing the carriageway and redoing the road markings.

No vehicles should be parked on the road for the duration of the work however access to homes will be maintained whenever possible.

A council spokesman said to residents: "We cannot complete these works without generating noise and we understand this may affect residents' sleep."

The council said that it will try to carry out the noisiest operations before 11pm and that closing the road overnight is more convenient than closing the road during the day.

Advance warning signs are set to be put up over the coming weeks.
