Calls for Angmering lane to be made 'no through road'

The petition, calling for Dappers Lane to be made a No Through Road, is expected to be presented to West Sussex County Council later this month.

The lane runs from Water Lane in the south to Arundel Road in the north – a junction which only buses are allowed to use, though campaigners say other drivers have simply ignored the ‘no entry’ signs.

Diana Hannant, co-leader of the Save Dappers Lane campaign, said: “Dappers Lane is a beautiful country lane; it has long been used by local people walking, running or cycling into the [South Downs] National Park.
