So with no parking available and no trains from Littlehampton to Brighton, I just wondered how you were planning to get to the Leicester game on Sunday 19th?

Park and ride is clearly going to be very popular that day, is it is going to be the best option?

 

[Napper]

no trains ? ffs southern

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

I'll be driving and can park at my Mums in Portslade. My dad gave me the heads up the Shoreham Bridge section of the a27 is closed in both directions with a diversion through Shoreham. Lovely stuff [emoji1751]

Someone kindly highlighted this a couple of weeks ago so I jumped on the Seagull Travel option quickly. They do run coaches from Havant / Emsworth so maybe that is an option for those in exile over the border.

Any further west than Pompey though, and l imagine you are absolutely stuffed without a car, taking the train up to Clapham Jct then down to the game is probably just as quick than mucking about on rail replacement buses.

With all due respect to LA, it's far worse than that. No trains from Barnham either. So much of West Sussex-based lines essentially stuffed for travel by train

Trains are running as far as Littlehampton so potentially plenty of options along the line to pick up a coach (Havant, Emsworth, Chichester, Barnham, Bognor or Littlehampton).

Thanks for the heads up, don't want to mess around and potentially not have this option either as I think they'll now get booked quickly so I've just done the same from Havant.

not sure if that is right , thought it was eastbound one week and westbound the other ? hopefully someone in the know will post and confirm

Nowt to do with Southern this time. This is National/Network Rail (or whatever they’re called) doing necessary engineering work - at least it only affects one home fixture, we hope!

For the safety of our workforce and customers, and to allow enough time for the material to cure, the A27 will be closed over the following two weekends:

8pm on Friday 10 September through to 6am on Monday 13 September 2021 – closure of the A27 eastbound carriageway from Manor Road roundabout to the A283 Shoreham junction
8pm on Friday 17 September through to 6am on Monday 20 September 2021 – closure of the A27 westbound carriageway from A283 Shoreham junction to the Manor Road roundabout
During the closures, signed diversion routes will be in place via A259.

I’m going up from Southampton Central to Clapham Junction, then onto East Croydon* and down to Brighton. About 2 hours 30 minutes journey time and £20.00 fare with card. At least I won’t be stuck on a poxy bus!

* Meeting up with family Punal for our grand day out - three generations going to watch the mighty stripes!

Thanks for that, sorry for the confusion!

Going via Clapham Jct probably doesn't take too much longer anyway, that train that runs along the coast from Southampton, is as slow as as a snail, with seemingly a station stop every few hundred yards.

The bus that is replacing it would probably overtake it!

18 stops - if you’re lucky!

Work was due to take place over the weekends of 11/12 September and 18/19 September, however we took the decision to reschedule both weekends due to the number of events taking place in the area. Along with restrictions on the rail service on our second planned weekend of work, this would have had too great an impact on our customers.

The work has now been rescheduled to take place over the following two weekends:

8pm on Friday 24 September through to 6am on Monday 27 September 2021 – closure of the A27 eastbound carriageway from Manor Road roundabout to the A283 Shoreham junction

8pm on Friday 8 October through to 6am on Monday 11 October 2021 – closure of the A27 westbound carriageway from A283 Shoreham junction to the Manor Road roundabout

Thank goodness the bit in the middle was fantastic

Did you get caught in the traffic after the crash on the a27. Luckily we found out before we got that far and could divert.
