Motorbike and deer involved in separate West Sussex collisions

According to AA Traffic News, there has been a collision involving a motorbike on Balls Cross Road, in the Chichester district.

An AA spokesperson said: “Partially blocked and heavy traffic due to crash, a car and a motorbike involved on Balls Cross Road both ways near Scammells Garage.”

Meanwhile, a deer has reportedly collided with a vehicle in Selsfield Road, near Haywards Heath.

An AA spokesperson said: “Reports of delays due to a vehicle and a deer crash on Selsfield Road both ways near The Brewery Shop and Tap Room.”

Elsewhere in West Sussex, Crawley Police said it was dealing with a broken down on Crawley Avenue ‘as you approach the Hazelwick Roundabout’ around 6.30pm. Police said this is ‘causing tailbacks up to Junction 10 as you come off the A23’, adding: “Please bear with us whilst we recover the vehicle.”

There are reports of a ‘traffic problem’ on the A23 near the Aldbourne Junction. Traffic is said to be coping well, with police en route.

There are also reports of a stalled vehicle on A23 at Handcross. Police are also en route to this incident, according to the AA.

Traffic is also said to be slow across Arundel, Littlehampton, Worthing and Shoreham due to roadworks.

On the railway line, engineers have inspected the area between Dorking and Horsham following reports of a landslip and trains are back on the move.

Lines have also reopened following an earlier fault on a train at Lancing.

As service recovers, trains running between Worthing and Brighton may still be cancelled or delayed by up to 30 minutes. Disruption is expected until 8pm.
