Improving the safety of Chiltington Way
We’re proposing changes to Chiltington Way to improve safety.
These changes are based on concerns raised by local residents and parents and carers of schoolchildren.
Some of the issues include:
- Drivers parking on the pavement or mounting the kerb when pedestrians are present.
- Drivers reversing or driving along the pavement
- Vehicles blocking driveways
- Vehicles blocking emergency vehicle access to the school
Proposed changes to Chiltington Way
- Chiltington Way would become one-way southbound from Effingham Close to Falmer Avenue (cyclists would still be able to travel in both directions)
- Speed bumps would be added along the one-way section
- Additional time-limited School Keep Clear road markings would be included to ensure Saltdean Primary’s emergency vehicle access is kept clear
Have your say
We'd love to hear what you think of the proposals.
The survey is open until Friday 3 January 2025 and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.
Phases
Traffic Regulation Order
Traffic Regulation Orders (TRO) are the legal documents behind the rules of the road. They allow us to enforce traffic and parking restrictions. We advertise proposals for changes to a TRO governing a road via a public notice.
The TRO survey is the final chance to comment before changes to the road layout are made. You can comment on the proposals during a 21-day period on our Traffic Regulation Order webpage by searching for TRO-6a-2025 and TRO-6b-2025. The 21-day comment period for the TRO for the proposed changes to Chiltington Way is advertised starting Friday 21st March.
If required, the council Cabinet member for Transport, Parking and Public Realm will then consider objections and comments of support. The Cabinet member will decide if the proposals should go ahead as they are, with changes, or not at all.
If the proposals are approved, the scheme will then proceed to construction and we'll notify you.
