A further stage of public consultation has been opened on the A27 Arundel bypass scheme.

Highways England is proposing to expand the capabilities of the single carriageway to ease congestion along the A27.

Those who responded to last year's consultation will now be given the opportunity to add to their responses during an additional four-week period.

Revealing more about the additional consultation, Highways England programme leader Jason Hones said: "We've always been upfront that we want to give people the best possible information to help them have their say on options for improving the A27 near Arundel.


"We have published a list of corrections to the materials from our consultation last autumn to following a comprehensive review of the documents.

"The corrections do not change the overall conclusions of our assessment of the various options presented in the consultation materials, or the design of any of the six proposed scheme options.

"We are inviting anyone who gave a response to the consultation and who feels that this update changes their opinion on the proposals to amend their response to the consultation. We have published a brief explanation alongside each of the errors to help people understand their effect."

Those who meet the criteria can make further comments on the A27 improvements from Monday 03 February to Sunday 01 March 2020.
