The consultation period for the proposed closure of Oving traffic lights consultation will now end next week, due to an 'ongoing technical fault' with the county council's website.

A formal consultation was opened last month into the closure of the Oving lights crossroads over the A27 as West Sussex County Council looks to create a traffic regulation order (TRO).

This was despite the live consultation website being out of use since Monday, which a council spokesman put down to a 'technical fault'.A spokesman for the council has today (Friday) revealed that the consultation will now end next week.

He said: “We apologise for the ongoing technical fault with the consultation page but please assure your readers we will now be accepting consultation responses until 4pm next Friday, November 22.
