The big question on everyone’s minds was “why is the NO CYCLING sign just here?” – surely it would make more sense at the end of the Prom, where there are ways of getting back onto the road?

The lane is just about wide enough for two-way use, although many cyclists cross the line to the pedestrian side to pass each other, especially if travelling fast.
The red banner shelters café seating on the beach, on the opposite side of the route from the café itself.
But it’s a useful start!
Worthing seafront is slowly but surely turning from a bleak expanse of tarmac next to a busy road, into a rather pleasant and relaxing place to be. People are becoming important to planners again!

Had this are been left flat open space, cyclists would find it much easier to avoid pedestrians going to and from the Pavilion Theatre.
A really nice solution would be to incorporate the new 20mph limit stretch with the Prom and the pavement, removing all edges like they do in Dutch towns!
