Thanks for sharing this informative blog post! I always find it frustrating when I’m stuck in traffic due to roadworks or accidents. It’s great to have a reliable source for real-time traffic updates. Definitely sharing this with my friends and family for them to check out!
Your website is impossible to understand as there are multiple conflicting updates for the same routes. Is it possible to provide a single accurate and up to date position on the A23 road closures both northbound and southbound for the remainder of 2023?
Brighton road out of Croydon closed and diversions too early to be followed. Had to turn back and stay overnight in London. No mention on your website.
Your data is confusing and repeated multiple times.
Very poor website and no help in this situation at all
will i be able to use The A23 on the 15th & 17 to travel to Gatwick airport
The A23 diversions are a joke. An hour & 15 mins to get home from Cuckfield to Hove instead of 25 minutes.
Will the A23 near Hooley be closed during the daytime on Saturday 21st August?
We left Brighton 10:30 and now we are still stuck at A23 (Sayers Common). Not moving at all. We have been here for 2 hours. Delay is more than 40 minutes. Please update your data.
We have been here over 3 hours so far! It said a 24 min delay! We are only half way between the junction on and off and not moving!
A23 north between 272 and crawly at a stand still 18.30
