Multi-vehicle collision in Worthing

Three vehicles were reportedly involved in a collision on A2031 Tarring Road. Police officers and paramedics were pictured at the scene, with cones blocking the road.

"This was a minor collision only and police are not appealing for any further information at this time,” a Sussex Police spokesperson said, at 4pm, after the road was cleared.

The incident was reported between Worthing and West Worthing railway stations, with slow traffic both ways near Shakespeare Road (St Matthew's Church).

Bus company Stagecoach South said bus services from Durrington to Worthing were being delayed due to the incident.

A spokesperson added: “Due to an RTC on Tarring Road, buses will be diverting via South Farm Road, St Lawrence Avenue and South Street, Tarring in both directions.

“We apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
