Progress on Jarvis Lane sign
After a very long campaign by local people to stop unsuitable heavy and large vehicles using the very narrow Jarvis Lane in Steyning, a appropriate sign is now expected to be erected by early April.
A sign had been erected last year, but it was removed after the owners of the premises on which it had been placed objected. It has taken more pressure from Derek Deedman and the Parish Council for a suitable alternative site to be found, but now it has been agreed by the Local Highway Manager that a sign can be placed on a pole opposite the Vets at the High Street entrance to Jarvis Lane. The sign has been designed and an order placed for it to be manufactured and erected within one month.
Hopefully the new sign will have the desired impact and unsuitable vehicles will no longer be stuck in the Lane causing damage to cars and walls when being removed.
