A264, Copthorne Way
A new road junction is being constructed on the Eastbound section of the A264, Copthorne Way. The junction provides access to a new housing development on the site of Holly Farm. The new junction will be created by widening the south side of the carriageway and adding in a turn right lane.
These works are scheduled to commence on the 14/05/2018.
The works will involve alterations to the road layout whilst we work such as reduced-width lane running and two-way temporary traffic lights as agreed by the Council.
The works are expected to last 15 weeks and will require a temporary speed limit of 30mph on the A264 Copthorne Way with working on the carriageway between the hours of 09.30 to 16.00 – There will be reduced width lane restrictions depending on what stage of the works we are completing. The first widening and final resurfacing stage will require night time working between 20.00 to 06.00 and are to be completed under two-way temporary traffic lights.
Motorist travelling during these hours are advised to allow extra time for their journey.
The flow of traffic and the work itself will be monitored by West Sussex County Council.
The Emergency contact number for the contractor carrying out these works is: 01293 844 218

Roadworks information – M23 resurfacing April 2018
What’s happening?
I am writing to advise that on behalf of Highways England, A-one+ will be carrying out some resurfacing work Northbound on the M23 between junctions 10 (Copthorne) and 9 (Gatwick). This is to complete the previous works that were postponed by severe weather conditions in January 2018.
Traffic management
In order to carry out these works as efficiently and as safely as possible, we will be implementing a slip road closure and lane closures on the M23 in addition to using a full road closure of the London bound carriageway on the M23, between 10pm on Friday evening to 4am on Monday morning on the dates listed below. The Southbound carriageway is unaffected.
Unfortunately, weekend closures are unavoidable due to the nature and scale of the work involved.
| Where the closure is taking place | Dates and timings |
| M23 junction 10 onslip and lanes 1 & 2 on the M23 between junctions 10 & 9 London bound
M23 junction 10 to junction 9 London bound & M23 junction 10a onslip. |
Thursday 19 April 2018 10 pm – Friday 20 April 4am
Friday 20 April 10pm – Monday 23 April 4am
|
Please be aware that these works have been carefully programmed but are subject to change due to weather conditions and unforeseen circumstances. The dates of the 26, 27, 28 and 29 April are being held as contingency in case of inclement weather.
Diversion routes
Clearly signed diversion routes will be in place during all closures and we will be using local routes which are suitable for all types of vehicles.
We are working closely with partner organisations to minimise disruption for residents during our works but an increase in traffic along the diversion routes is unfortunately unavoidable.
How do I get to Gatwick airport?
Northbound traffic for Gatwick airport will exit the M23 at junction 10 and take the A2011 Crawley Avenue to the A23 London Road to reach Airport Way and the North Terminal roundabout to the South Terminal.
How do I get to the M25?
Northbound traffic for the M25 will exit at junction 10 and follow the A264 through Copthorne, turning left (northbound) onto the A22 at the traffic lights at Felbridge.
Traffic will continue northbound on the A22 through New Chapel, Blindley Heath and South Godstone, reaching the M25 at the junction 6 Godstone interchange.
Are you working on the M23 Southbound?
The M23 Southbound carriageway will not be closed during these works and all Gatwick airport traffic will be able to exit at junction 9 or continue Southbound towards Brighton as usual.
