Road Closure: DITTONS ROAD ROUNDABOUT SOUTH — Brighton

Motorists in the Brighton area are advised to plan their journeys in advance as the Dittons Road Roundabout South in Westham will be affected by roadworks from 29 September 2026 at 19:00 to 30 September 2026 at 04:00. The roadworks, which are being carried out by East Sussex County Council, are expected to cause medium-severity disruptions, although they have been classified as minor in nature. Drivers who regularly use the Dittons Road Roundabout South should consider alternative routes to avoid delays during this period.

The roadworks are scheduled to take place overnight, which may help to minimise the impact on daytime traffic. However, drivers who need to travel through the area during the evening or early morning hours should be prepared for potential delays. East Sussex County Council has not provided detailed information on the specific nature of the roadworks, but it is likely that they will involve lane closures or other traffic management measures to ensure the safety of workers and motorists.

To avoid getting caught up in the disruption, drivers are advised to check traffic apps or websites for up-to-date information on road conditions before setting out. Alternative routes may be available, although these may add time to journeys. It is also a good idea to leave extra time to account for any unexpected delays. By planning ahead and being aware of the roadworks, drivers can help to minimise the impact of the disruption and reduce the risk of congestion in the area.

East Sussex County Council is responsible for maintaining the roads in the area and has organised the roadworks as part of its ongoing programme of highway maintenance. The council works to ensure that the road network is safe and well-maintained, and roadworks are sometimes necessary to achieve this goal. While the disruption may cause some inconvenience, it is an important part of keeping the roads in good condition.

Drivers who are unsure about the best route to take or want to get more information about the roadworks can check the East Sussex County Council website or contact the council directly.
