Police respond to collision on A27 in East Sussex

A driver sustained ‘minor injuries’ after a collision on the A27 in East Sussex.

Two police cars were pictured at the scene in Hove – with a vehicle involved in the collision facing the wrong way.

Paramedics joined police at the scene and, according to an eye-witness, the fire service has also attended the incident, which was reported around 10.30am today (Wednesday, November 20).

A spokesperson for the South East Coast Ambulance Service said: “Crews assessed and treated one patient with minor injuries at the scene.”

Sussex Police said the A27 westbound carriageway has now ‘fully reopened’ following a ‘previous single lane closure’.

The force added: “The driver sustained minor injuries and no arrests were made.”

AA Traffic News reported that one lane was blocked, leading to delays on the A27 Westbound at A2038 King George Vi Avenue (Hove turn-off).

Meanwhile, in Saltdean, the AA reported a stalled bus on A259 Marine Drive Westbound near B2123 High Street. The road was said to be partially blocked, with delays in the area. This has now also cleared, with traffic flowing as normal.
