West Sussex Highways launch their new website
Dear Parish Clerk,
We recently launched our West Sussex Highways website (in collaboration with our contractor, Balfour Beatty Living Places) with the intention of giving you up-to-date information on the services we provide in maintaining the public highway. I hope you will find the site useful and I would encourage you to visit it. The site is open to everyone so please pass on the website address to your residents and anyone else who may be interested.
The website address is westsussexhighways.org.
