Regional chiefs have called for swift action to solve transport problems on the Sussex Coast.
The South-East's regional assembly and development agency have jointly written to transport minister Tony McNulty, saying all organisations involved should work together.
The comments follow the Government's rejection of road proposals including bypasses at Arundel and Worthing and improvements to the A27 east of Lewes.
Assembly chairman Nick Skellett said: "It is important for those who live on the South Coast we have the commitment of the minister to solving its transport problems."
The potential of the Sussex coast railway line has been realised. A Highways Agency review of the roads is expected in the spring.
