Can anybody explain why the path along Brighton seafront, and I don't mean Kingsway, has become a main road during the past year?

I have spent a great deal of time on the seafront through the years.

Recently, I have been driven to distraction by the number of Transit vans, lorries and cars there.

My toddler and I, and friends with their children, have to stop and wait for them to pass so we can continue what should be a relaxing walk along the front. It is stressful, as I fear for the safety of our children.

Perhaps Brighton and Hove City Council should limit the hours access traffic is allowed, as I am sure was the case in the past.
