Closes 7 Nov 2025

Overview

We are looking to seek your views on a new Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) for extending the 30mph speed limit along Avis Road, Newhaven.  The proposed 30mph speed limit extension will run from the existing 30 mph speed limit by the junction with Avis Way, northwards towards the junction with the A26.  

Drawings showing the extent of the proposed speed limit and details of the proposed signage and road marking changes are attached below.  There is also a link to the Avis Road TRO Notice that will be posted on site during the consultation.

Should you wish to provide us with feedback on the proposals, or to make comment on the proposed TRO, please use the link below. I would be grateful to receive any comments you may have on the proposals before Friday 7 November 2025, when the TRO advertisement period closes. 

Why your views matter

We want to hear your views on the proposals. All feedback will be considered.

Any comments will need to be emailed to tros@eastsussex.gov.uk by the closing date.
