How long is the one over Limassol and it is 2 lane both ways It even goes past the football stadium. The houses and factories underneath remained in full use during the building of it. the difference being that they do not have NIMBYs and Green Party,.

Er... yes they do.

Anyway, so... not withstanding that your main justification for a Sompting / Worthing / Durrington / Salvington / Findon flyover is that they have one in Limassol...

I have several questions for your ambitious scheme, but I'll limit it to the 'low-hanging fruit' ones...

1. Where does the eastbound traffic go? Is it on a lower tier?

2. If the westbound traffic is on the elevated section, where would the junctions be?

3. It will be ugly, and I don't suppose people on that main road losing natural sightlines and sunlight, and having an increased traffic noise will consider it a godsend. So bearing in mind there is no room for a two-tier section, would you advocate a compulsory purchase scheme - effectively knocking down the houses most affected by the current road system (and thereby doing away with some of the human environmental issue) to make way for a new road system?

... any chance of letting us know your thoughts on those above questions? Ta.

MFI made okay stuff, Ikea peddle cheaply made crap with amusing Nordic names to make them appear stylish....

Hmm - Maybe I was stretching it with MFI but, other half persuaded me to buy a couple of things from Ikea from my office and having reluctantly gone along with this I am completely reaffirmed in my Ikea opinion, their furniture is absolute crap. Took me about 2 hours to fit a glass shelf because some bellend didn't think to allow a tiny percentage of a mm for the fact that GLASS doesn't have much give in it. Manage to thread an awkward screw by hand FFS. Now I've just had the side panel of another unit fail, F******g chipboad sh*te. And a 2.5 hour drive to replace it.

It astounds me that we cannot build a flyover going from The Adur flyover to the Sompting by pass and also from Lyons Farm to Swandean allowing west travelling traffic to go on and the existing roads and roundabouts to be used by local traffic. This has be done on the A1 in Cyprus north of Limmasol on the main Larnaca to Paphos road so why cant it be done in England.


Could it also have on it....a monorail?

Good to see the IKEA to High Salvington trunk road getting another airing.

I have no idea why you are all laughing a BG, because he's so close to being correct he just zigged when he should have zagged.
The answer is obvious, as I'm sure he was getting to it:-

Silly old bat
The Secretary of State isn't calling in the planning permission so it's full steam ahead for the club to develop and build Ikea.

It is dual carriageway about 5 miles long with the existing junctions in place underneath the elevated motorway with access slip roads to them.
