Gallery:A283
I went for a spin in my private plane from Shoreham Airport and took these pics. OK, this is a photo in Shoreham Airport foyer.

The point where the old A27 crossed the A283 at Shoreham, after crossing the River Adur.

The new bridge replaced <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1502048'>TQ0218 : River Arun: Stopham Bridge</a> as the crossing of the A283 over the River Arun. The bridge was completed in 1986 and consists of four spans supported on reinforced concrete piers and abutments. Because of the poor ground conditions the piers are supported on piles that go down some 15 to 20 metres to the sandstone rock formation beneath the surface. A blue horsebox trundles across the bridge heading in the direction of Pulborough.
Most rural A roads in Surrey kept their old signs, this is as soon as you cross the border from Sussex.

Without actually telling you where you are going (Milford), this is a copy of the one a few miles south. It seems towns need a minimum population before being mentioned on the A road signs.

Heading south to Sussex this sign is on the back of the northbound one.

This sign is on an unclassified road approaching a road that used to be the A283. The sign still has the glass beads on the letters and arrows.

These were very large photos in the foyer of Shoreham Airport terminal. The old A27 can be clearly seen. It rejoins the newer road at those rather annoying traffic lights that ruin the otherwise freeflow section.
