Steve Taylor, from the Sussex West Road Policing Unit, wrote on Twitter the road was likely to be closed for a ‘significant time’.

The accident is believed to have happened at the northern end of the road near Findon Cricket Club.

The A280 is one of the roads being used as a diversion for the A27 while it remains closed at Shoreham following Saturday’s plane crash.
