'Love West Sussex' will be switched off (decommissioned) on Friday 28 April 2023. If you have previously bookmarked or saved the Love West Sussex web URL or app to your device then we strongly encourage you to delete and save Report a problem with a road or pavement Full URL as follows: https://www.westsussex.gov.uk/roads-and-travel/make-an-enquiry-or-report-a-problem-with-a-road-or-pavement/
Members, Residents, District & Borough & Town & Parish Councils have all been informed of this change and the date. For any existing 'Love West Sussex' defects in progress, customers will now receive status updates directly from the Council providing they submitted an email address at the time of registering the original issue.
In November 2022, we launched our new suite of online road and pavement reports which are quick, simple, robust and sustainable offering mobile device friendly interactive maps. We continue to receive high volumes of reports due to the weather and in one week in January we received 2,000 reports which is an all time record. Both our staff and contractors continue to prioritise and progress safety work first.

Public invited to have their say on A259 Bognor to Littlehampton highway infrastructure proposals

West Sussex County Council is proposing a major highway infrastructure improvement project for the A259 Bognor Regis to Littlehampton corridor.
The scheme will improve nine locations between Comet Corner and Bridge Road (Tesco) roundabout, easing congestion and making journeys safer.
The Council's objective of supporting a sustainable and propsperous ecomony is underpinned by the scheme. The aim is to provide a safer, more efficient and overall resilient transport network and will be supported by a funding bid to the Department for Transport later this year.
Once the funding bid is approved, the scheme design will be finalised and a business case will be submitted to the Department for Transport in late 2024. Starting in Spring/Summer 2025.
The online consultation started on Monday 13 March and will continue for six weeks, closing at midnight on Sunday 23 April 2023.
During the consultation period, we have held four in-person drop-in events.
The next online event will be on:
- Tuesday 18 April, 6pm – 7pm
At each of these events, the project team were on hand to answer questions and provide further information to attendees.
Have your say on proposed sustainable transport improvements in Worthing and Chichester

Public engagement has begun on proposals for four new sustainable transport improvements in West Sussex.
The proposals are part of the County Council’s transport plan to encourage more walking, cycling and public transport use. By improving sustainable transport infrastructure, we aim to make walking, cycling and public transport more attractive options, particularly for shorter journeys such as trips to school. This will help to make the County a safer, more pleasant place in which to live, work and do business.
Four potential improvement schemes across Chichester and Worthing are being developed. The proposals are at an early stage, so we would like to hear from people and organisations who may be affected by the schemes to help to develop the designs. If we decide to progress the schemes, then designs would be published for consultation later this year.
The improvements being considered include the creation of safe, dedicated space for cycling, new crossings and wider footways, and installation of traffic signals with bus priority measures in Chichester. The schemes are:
Worthing
- Worthing Town Centre to Grove Lodge Cycle Route
- Goring to Durrington Cycle Route
Chichester
- A286 Oaklands Way Cycle Scheme
- A285 Chichester to Tangmere Sustainable Transport Corridor
You can find out more about these suggested improvements by visiting:
On the websites you can also have your say by completing a questionnaire and commenting on interactive maps. This initial engagement period will close at 23:59 on 30 April 2023.
