Chaos has erupted on the A27 in East Sussex following a multi-vehicle crash involving a car and a motorbike. The incident has led to the closure of the eastbound carriageway between Pevensey and Little Common, resulting in major traffic disruption.

Emergency services were quick to respond, rushing to the scene to provide urgent assistance. National Highways teams are actively managing the situation, working to control traffic flow and clear the road as swiftly as possible. Their prompt efforts aim to ensure driver safety and restore normal traffic conditions.

Due to the closure of the eastbound A27, traffic is being diverted onto local roads. Drivers are advised to follow clearly marked diversion signs and prepare for significant delays. The unexpected closure is expected to cause queues to build rapidly, so patience is strongly recommended.

Travel advice for motorists includes allowing extra time for journeys, planning alternative routes where feasible, and considering postponing travel until the road reopens. National Highways urges all drivers to avoid the area if possible to help reduce congestion and support emergency responders in their work.
