West Sussex County Council’s cabinet member for highways and transport, Bob Lanzer, said: “This improvement will make people feel much less exposed when crossing Whyke Road.
“By extending the footpath, there will be no need for pedestrians to be so close to such a busy roundabout.
“It will also be a superior link for the footbridge across the roundabout too.”
