According to MotorTransport, the road has 196.5 seconds in average delays for every mile driven.

Chris Tindall from MotorTransport said, “Its junction with the A27 has been plagued with roadworks for several months.”

Only 12 of the 2,000 more minor A roads monitored had fewer than 10 seconds per vehicle per mile waits, according to MotorTransport.
