LBP are pleased to report that West Sussex Highways contractors have completed the ridge collapse works outside the Test Centre in Chartwell Road, ahead of schedule.

The contractors conducted the works yesterday during the off-peak period, managing to keep the road open without causing any traffic issues.

LBP would like to thank businesses for slowing down during these works and helping to keep everyone safe.

LBP are pleased to report that West Sussex Highways have scheduled the repairs for the ridge collapse in Chartwell Road outside The Test Centre for:

Wednesday 9th March

This is a provisional date which we hope will be possible, but LBP will let you know if this date changes. 

A West Sussex Highways Contractor will undertake the works on the driver-side of the carriageway and is expected to completed these works within the same day.

LBP appreciate how important it is for Chartwell Road to remain open and therefore it is planned to close the HGV loading bay outside The Test Centre during the works, to enable access around the works and ensure the road is kept open.

We ask that all businesses please be patient and ensure vehicles slow down as much as possible whilst passing the works, to help safeguard the works crew.

Thank you.

LBP are very pleased to confirm that West Sussex Highways have now completed the LBP Community Highway Scheme.

This project has provided the following changes:

• New HGV Loading/ Waiting Bays
• Additional Double Yellow Lines
• New Parking Spaces 
• One-Way Measures
• Refreshed Junction Markings 
• Refreshed Existing Double Yellow Lines

We ask that all business please help to keep access clear and the business park safe, by adhering to the new measures. Please note that all new measures are now enforceable by the Traffic Wardens.

This year's LBP Big Clean was delivered on on Sunday 9th January 2022, which was slightly later than normal to coincide with the implementation of the LBP Community Highway Scheme. This measure ensured businesses only needed to clear the business park of vehicles for just one day and helped provide a clean surface for the line painters to work.

LBP would like to thank businesses for supporting these works by clearing the park of as many vehicles as possible, to enable a deep clean of all the public highways across the business park.

LBP would also like to thank Mike Nea of CJS Landscapes Ltd for his hard work on the day, along with the Adur & Worthing Council Services Team pictured above, for their hard work and patience whilst we co-ordinated efforts with the LBP Community Highway Scheme works.

LBP Community Highway Scheme Update

LBP are very pleased to announce that WSCC Highways have concluded the public consultation for the LBP Community Highway Scheme, which highlighted concern over visibility as a result of additional parking planned outside Parklands Business Centre. Highways have therefore removed two spaces from the scheme to ensure parked vehicles will not impact visibility whilst exiting the site.

LBP are very pleased to report that the LBP Community Highway Scheme has now been approved and programmed for implementation on:

Sunday 9th January 2022

These improvement works have been designed to:

• Help address 38 outstanding highway issues
• Remove access obstructions
• Improve junction visibility and access
• Create HGV waiting/ loading bays, restricted to one hour between 6am & 6pm
• Create additional on-street car parking spaces on the business park

WSCC Highways also plan to repaint the give way lines across the park and install road markings to help ensure people go the correct way around the one way system.

LBP Big Clean

In preparation for the LBP Big Clean, LBP liaises with businesses on the park to ensure the roads are as clear of vehicles as possible on the day of the Big Clean. This enables a thorough clean to take place.

To minimise the impact to businesses, LBP usually aims to undertake the Big Clean between Christmas and New Year, providing a clean environment for businesses to start the year.

This year LBP have programmed the LBP Big clean to co-inside with the implementation of the LBP Community Highway Scheme on:

Sunday 9th January 2022

This will ensure that vehicles only need to be cleared once from the park and the park is clean ready for the new measures to be implemented.

Please can all business help by updating their staff that there will be no parking on the business park on Sunday 9th January. Thank you

LBP are pleased to announce that the LBP Committee considered 11 local charities and selected Adur Special Needs Project as the new LBP Charity of the year.

Jon Rush, ASNP Trustee commented "Thank you to the Lancing Business Park Committee and members for choosing Adur Special Needs Project (ASNP) as their new Charity of the Year. We are thrilled to be given this opportunity to work with the businesses and employees on the Park whilst having fun and raising money for our local cause.

Adur Special Needs Project runs Play Schemes on the 2^nd and 4^th Saturdays of each month during term time at Herons Dale School in Shoreham. We look after local children who have registered Special Educational Needs or Disabilities. Our Charity aims to achieve three things:

• Provide fun and stimulating play and learning activities for children between the ages of 5 and 15
• Provide valuable respite time for the families
• Provide vocational paid work and training for people above the age of 16 in the local community

We are looking forward to the next year and we will be providing LBP businesses with fundraising ideas as well as a summary of the events we already have in the pipeline. We hope that we can have a successful fundraising year and have a lot of fun at the same time.
