Traffic Hot Spots
In mid summer 2025 a meeting was held in Sidlesham to identify traffic accident and incident hot spots on the Manhood Peninsula, and anything else affecting the peninsula roads. All parishes on the Manhood Peninsula took part. The meeting also included other local groups interested in green travel, walking, horse riding and cycling who contributed their observations on potential accident sites.
The meeting arose out of previous discussions with WSCC Highways, during which it was suggested that GLaM develop a project including all the concerns about roads within which individual projects could be put forward for funding. The overall project framework would be intended to provide the rationale and evidence for smaller individual projects, which overall, would seek to address the Hot Spot issues raised.
The traffic hots spots identified were complied into a map and report, both of which can be downloaded below:
The GIS map can be found as a layer on CDC’s website:
