An A26 bus diversion is affecting routes 29 and 29A today, with Brighton & Hove Buses unable to serve stops between Ham Lane and Little Horsted in either direction.

The operator posted the live service update at 10.41am on Monday 21 September 2026. It has not published an end time, so passengers should check the latest information before travelling.

The following stops are temporarily not being served:

  • Ham Lane
  • The Cock Inn
  • Barcombe Lane
  • Top of Clay Hill
  • Isfield Old Ship
  • Rose Hill Halfway House
  • Kiln Lane
