Taken Sunday 20th April 2008 from Mill Hill overbridge looking down on the A27/A283 interchange, the Shoreham 'Flyover'.
Opened in 1970 replacing the old single track toll bridge over the River Adur which you can see in the mid-ground.
Eventually connected to the A27 Brighton by-pass in 1996 making this part of a longer distance route.
In the distance is the South Downs and Lancing, Worthing.

The same view more or less but after sun down, that special time of twilight.
Lancing College now really stands out.

Looking up the River Adur towards the flyover built in the late 1960s to replace the old 18th cventury wooden toll bridge. Beyond the bridge is Mill Hill.
The point where the old A27 crossed the A283 at Shoreham, after crossing the River Adur.

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.

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 third bridge on the site having opened in 1970 to replace one built in 1923 which in turn had replaced the original 19th century suspension bridge. Prior to that all traffic over the Adur went by the 18th century wooden toll bridge.
