Twitter users said at around 4pm on Sunday, May 14, that the A272 had been temporarily closed.
A photographer sent this newspaper four photos that confirmed this, showing a 'road closed' sign next to a police vehicle and a tractor with hay bales on a flat bed trailer.
AA Traffic News is now showing that the road is open as normal. Visit www.theaa.com/route-planner/traffic-news/cowfold.
