Crest Nicholson will start work on the Cheals Roundabout on October 22.

A spokesman said: “Works are expected to be completed by the end of May/early June 2019, with some disruption along Horsham Road, Crawley Avenue and surrounding areas expected during this time.”

The improvements will be funded by Crest Nicholson as part of its Kilnwood Vale development.

There will be a new left turn filter lane leading from Horsham Road to Crawley Avenue, as well as new footways and pedestrian crossing points at the junction.
