Uneven Suface, 18th December

Subject: Complaint about Poor Quality Road Resurfacing Dear National Highways, I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the recently resurfaced road on A27 between Fly Sussex Paragliding and Mid Farm, which I believe is of extremely poor quality. The road resurfacing project was meant to improve the condition of the road, but unfortunately, it has resulted in an even more problematic and uncomfortable driving experience. The first issue I would like to address is the severe bumpiness of the road. The newly resurfaced surface seems uneven and lacks the smoothness one would expect from a fresh road. I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify this problem and ensure a smooth and safe driving environment. Furthermore, the joint points on the resurfaced road are excessively rough, causing significant discomfort and inconvenience during travel. It is alarming to see such poor workmanship in a project that was presumably intended to enhance the road conditions. The rough joints may also contribute to additional wear and tear on vehicles, leading to unwanted expenses for residents. I urge you to investigate these joint points and implement repairs to ensure a higher quality road surface. Considering the substandard condition of the recently resurfaced road, I am concerned about its durability in the long run. If the road is already displaying signs of poor quality within a short period, it raises doubts about its ability to withstand regular usage and changing weather conditions. I am worried that the road will deteriorate at an accelerated rate, causing even more inconvenience and safety hazards for everyone using it. I kindly request that you assess the quality and integrity of the road and take necessary measures to reinforce it if needed. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon and witnessing improvements in the road conditions. Yours sincerely, Oner Ozdamar

There are absolutely no signs at this fatal road junction...where is the Glynde sign? You very wrongly say there are brown signs to Glyndebourne.....no there are not. Nothing exists at this fatal junction. Please have a look in the interests of saving lives. At least, the village of Glynde and its railway station should be signed from the A27.

No sign to Glyndebourne from m busy A27, 2nd December

Sat, 02 Dec 2023 20:36:46 +0000
50.853097 0.069699

Lots of vehicles regularly go to and from Glyndebourne from the incredibly busy A27 but there are no road direction signs. People are braking hard and turning around on the fatal A27 to get to the correct junction. Please install signs pointing to Glyndebourne urgently. You might see it as appropriate to add lighting at this hidden but busy junction, often used by elderly patrons of the opera. Thanks very much for saving lives.

Vegetation overgrowing cycle/footpath, 17th July

Mon, 17 Jul 2023 16:30:14 +0100
50.853138 0.059788

The cycle/ footpath on the A27 for about 2 miles between Beddingham roundabout and Burgh Lane is badly overgrown. In many places it is too narrow for people to pass in opposite directions, and on the eastern end it puts cyclists very close to the traffic. It has been like this for over a month and is slowly getting worse.

The signage on the north side of the road here directs cyclists west to Laughton, although the way is to the north. The sign for motorists on the a27 correctly points north. The route to the north is on quiet lanes, whilst any route to the west would involve a long diversion on some main roads

Came through Glynde to access the A27 on the evening of the 20th March, as Malling Street has a night closure to get to the end of the road and find it barriered off for night works. Please place AWS further into Glynde for residents and road users to be aware of so that we can make the appropriate arrangements to travel in the evenings.

50.853885 0.08275

All access roads to and from the A27 are blocked and several unmanned. For residents this is utter pain as the roads are closing far too early (9pm) many local farmers are still working late and need to get access to fields and farms which have been blocked off. Please leave enough space for us to drive round with tractor and trailer. We will respect the staff and drive slowly if you leave access to our farms.
