***TRANSPORT IN ARUNDEL***
Arundel includes meadows to the south but is clustered north of the A27 road, which narrowly avoids the town centre by a short and congested single carriageway bypass. Plans for a more extensive, high-quality dual carriageway bypass were debated intensely between 1980 and 2010 and a junction was built for it at Crossbush.
