Work is well under way on the new extension of the Centurion Way, improving access for all to the National Park - with some amazing views and history along the way!

Once completed the route will provide a safe and sustainable route for walkers and cyclists between Chichester and the 100-mile-long South Downs Way.

Work on sections 5 and 6 of the route has now begun, with completion expected by September this year.

This extension will connect the route to Littlewood.

Please note that during the early stages of construction, access will be restricted at certain times on the Centurion Way route north of recently-renovated Singleton Station. This is for public safety due to construction vehicles and ongoing work being carried out.

These restrictions are planned for weekdays only, so finished parts of the route will remain open during evenings, weekends, and public holidays.

For public safety, two Public Rights of Way that link with this section of the Centurion Way will also be closed throughout the construction period.

Learn more in our dedicated Centurion Way hub, which includes some useful FAQs 😊
