Water lorry falls in hole
A heavy water jet lorry tending to a blocked sewer reversed into a roadside hole yesterday.
A 100-ton crane was called to recover the Southern Water vehicle at the East Worthing Wastewater Treatment Works in Meadow Road.
A Southern Water spokesman said: "The driver and passenger were unhurt.
"We will begin investigations to find out what caused the void to form, before making the necessary repairs."
The site is working as usual.
