A road closed following a fatal crash is likely to reopen this evening.

The A29 both ways is closed due to resurfacing work and emergency repairs between A284/B2139 (Whiteways Lodge roundabout) and Church Lane (Bury village) following the crash on Wednesday at 5.35pm.

This is affecting traffic heading between Pulborough and Arundel.

Divisions are southbound onto A283 at Pulborough and then onto A24 at Washington and northbound via the A27 to A280 and then A24.
