New rainbow coloured bench for Burgess Hill installed near bus shelter

Burgess Hill Town Council funded the bench, which can be found on the south side of Queen Elizabeth Avenue, after a town resident got in touch.

The resident requested seating at the location because they had nowhere to sit while waiting for their bus, a council spokesperson said.

“The Town Council also approached Clear Channel UK, who owns this bus shelter, to enquire if they would install a perch seat at the shelter,” said the spokesperson.

“The company was delighted to support the resident’s request and a perch seat has now been installed.”
