Solutions to manage the large number of people driving to West Wittering beach next summer are being considered.

Due to the improvement of sat navs and advanced mapping, motorists are diverting from the main access roads and using narrowly single track roads unsuitable for high volumes of traffic.

Therefore the West Wittering Estate has brought forward plans to manage peak traffic flow, but these would need sign-off from West Sussex County Council.
