Public Notice Portal round-up: Yellow lines follow villagers' complaints on new estate, parking increases for Adur and Worthing and new A29 speed limits

• Residents' complaints about parking on a new estate in Angmering have led to plans to introduce double yellow lines.

West Sussex County Council has given notice of a permanent Traffic Regulation Order to prohibit waiting at any time on both sides of Barncroft Gardens at its junction with Drift Road, and on the western side of Longlakes Way.

Any comments or objections about the proposal must be received before August 20. Full details can be viewed on the Traffic Regulation Order page of the WSCC website.

In the statement of reasons, the council said: “Barncroft Gardens and Longlakes Way are roads within a recently-constructed residential property development south of the A259 in Angmering.

“The developer has received complaints from residents that vehicles parking on the affected roads are obstructing driveways and the passage of traffic along the roads and is funding the proposed order to resolve these problems.

“The new order is therefore proposed to facilitate the passage of traffic.”

The roads are part of the Manor Place housing development, which was built by Redrow and launched in February 2023.

• New charges in all Worthing council car parks have been confirmed, meaning an average increase of around 3.5 per cent.

Worthing Borough Council has given notice of the parking charges changes at off-street car parks, with increases from 5p per hour for both occasional users and season ticket holders due to come into force on August 24.

The proposals apply to all the council car parks, including the High Street, Buckingham Road and Civic Quarter multi-storey car parks, and the Beach House East and West, Brooklands Brighton Road East and West, Brooklandsand Western Road, Lyndhurst Road, Montague Centre and Teville Gate surface car parks.

Season tickets at Amelia Park and Marine Crescent are also affected.

At the High Street multi-storey, for example, the minimum one-hour charge would rise from £1.50 to £1.55 and the maximum 12-hour tariff would increase from £13 to £13.40.

The council has said the additional income generated by the increases would help support continued investment in council services.

A wider review of the parking strategy is planned during 2026/27, with aims including simplifying tariffs, improving the parking app experience and supporting local businesses.

• New charges in Adur car parks have also been confirmed, with an average increase of around six per cent.

Adur District Council has given notice of the parking charges changes at off-street car parks, with increases from 10p per hour for both occasional users and season ticket holders due to come into force on September 21.

The proposals apply to all the council's surface car parks, including Southwick Square, Shoreham's Beach Green, Middle Street, Old Fort, Pond Road, Riverside and Tarmount Lane car parks, and Lancing's Littlecroft and North Farm Road car parks.

Some of the car parks have a flat rate charge for Sundays and Bank Holidays, which will increase from £1 to £1.10. The 30-minute parking option would be removed.

At the Beach Green car park, for example, the one-hour charge would rise from 80p to £1 and the all-day tariff would increase from £5.40 to £5.70.

Council car parks that are currently free to use, such as Kingston Beach in Shoreham, would remain free of charge.

• Speed limits on a major West Sussex road are set to change to 'address collisions and improve road safety for all users'.

Coldwaltham Parish Council submitted a community highway scheme application for a speed limit reduction along the A29 from Bury Gate to Pulborough.

West Sussex County Council has now given notice of a permanent Traffic Regulation Order affecting speed limits on the A29 and adjoining roads in Coldwaltham, Bury and Fittleworth.

It is proposed that speed limits will vary between 20mph, 30mph and 40mph. Any objections or comments about the proposal must be received by August 20.

There would be a 20mph speed limit on the length of the A29 through Coldwaltham village and on the roads in Coldwaltham village.

A 30mph speed limit would apply between Bury Gate and Watersfield and the A29 between Coldwaltham and Pulborough would have a 40mph speed limit.

In the statement of reasons, the county council said: “There is currently a 30mph speed limit on the A29 between Watersfield and Coldwaltham and on the roads in Coldwaltham village, with the remaining length of the A29 being unrestricted.

“The route has been assessed in accordance with the WSCC Speed Limit Policy. The result of the assessment is reduced speed limits be introduced along the route.

“A 40mph speed limit is considered appropriate on the section of the A29 between Coldwaltham and Pulborough. This section of the A29 is within the South Downs National Park and it is proposed that the new 40mph speed limit will be implemented with standard terminal signs supported by roundels at the entry points and 40mph repeater signs along the route.

“The 20mph speed limit in Coldwaltham will be supported by two Vehicle Activated Signs. The aim of the scheme is to reduce speeds along the A29, address collisions and improve road safety for all users.

“This order is proposed so as to avoid danger to persons or other traffic using the road or to minimise the likelihood of any such danger arising and for facilitating the safe passage of any class of traffic (including pedestrians).”

• A footpath in Parham has been closed due to a broken bridge.

West Sussex County Council gave notice of the Temporary Closure Order for the footpath from the A283 Mare Hill Road southwards to its junction with Church Lane.

The council said the order was necessary to protect public safety and no alternative routes were available using the Public Rights of Way network.

The order came into effect on August 5 and will last for six months.
