• Lights on the a27 near sompting are completely out of phase causing huge tailbacks. They let a handful of cars go. The lights at the bottom of berriedale drive that is.

• Traffic light phasing has been changed, causing long tail backs and forcing traffic onto the only other two congested small roads past this junction, This is having a serious environmental effect in the whole Sompting area.

• Why on earth are the traffic lights only on green for 15 seconds? It has taken me 35 minutes to get from Lyon’s farm to the lancing traffic lights today.

  Sort it out
