Much of the recent problems on the roads have been caused by the A27 Portfield scheme, which began in May, as part of planning permission for the new Shopwyke Lakes development. The scheme commenced on a number of roads, including the A27 Chichester bypass, A27 Westhampnett bypass, Portfield Way, Shopwhyke Road and Oving Road in May. The major scheme, which has seen the A27 narrowed, is scheduled to continue until autumn 2020.
