Disruptions and road closures are expected as roads near a railway station are resurfaced.

The work to resurface the roads approaching Worthing station has been scheduled from November 14 to 22.

This is part of the final phase in West Sussex County Council’s Railway Approach improvements programme.

The work will be carried out in phases, on November 14 and 15 between 7.30am and 5.30pm each day, and overnight from November 18 to 22 between 8pm and 4am each day.

The roads affected are Railway Approach, Cross Street, Victoria Road, Teville Place and Oxford Road.

Road closures and traffic management will be necessary to complete the work.

A spokesperson for West Sussex County Council said: “Resurfacing this whole section will reduce any future disruption and make best use of the planned night closures.

“Pedestrian access to Worthing Station and local businesses will be maintained where possible.”

Access routes and parking will need to be relocated as the works progress and will be signposted. Special access arrangements will be made for emergency services.

Councillor Steve Waight, West Sussex County Council cabinet member for economic development, said: “This work to resurface the Worthing station railway approach area and the other side roads is the final stage of a major project that will improve access to the station for all road users and pedestrians, and help support a sustainable and prosperous economy.

“During the evening work, some cars will need to be moved overnight but alternative parking locations will be made available for residents.

"The work could be affected by bad weather conditions in which case it might need to be rescheduled at short notice."
