A man was taken to hospital after his car crashed in the Southwick Hill tunnel today.

His Alfa Romeo is thought to have clipped the side of tunnel, on the A27 near Shoreham, before overturning in the early hours.

Leading Firefighter Justin Bomyer said: "There weren't any other cars involved. When we arrived the man had got himself out of the overturned car and was walking around."

The westbound side of the tunnel was closed for half an hour and the man was taken to Worthing Hospital with minor injuries.
