Surface dressing involves spraying a coating of bitumen on the road, followed by one or more layers of hard stone chippings.

The work makes the road safer because it improves the skid resistance of the surface.

Traffic can be allowed to run on the new surface almost immediately – avoiding lengthy closures and disruption.

Surface dressing is taking place from yesterday (Monday, June 10) until Friday, June 14, subject to weather conditions, in the following locations:

• Cowfold Road, Bolney;

• Cuckfield Road, between Ansty and the Cuckfield Bypass, Ansty;
