In Withdean Road, which falls in Zone 12, the points will also have a four-hour maximum stay restriction with no return within four hours.

Additionally, new electric vehicle charging points are set to be introduced in several areas.

These include Carden Avenue, Downland Road, Hollingbury Rise, Moulsecoomb Way and Orchard Road.

These new points will also operate under the same 8am to 8pm restrictions, with a four-hour maximum stay and no return within four hours.

The council has advised that while the existing descriptions of the charging points will change, there will be no alterations on the ground.

Full details of the changes, including the reasons for the amendments, can be viewed on the council website.

The new restrictions are set to come into force on Monday, April 27, under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

Any person wishing to question the validity of the orders may apply to the High Court within six weeks from the date the orders were made.
