A vehicle has crashed into barriers at a level crossing causing delays to trains in the county.

The road-going vehicle collided with a barrier in Broomers Hill Lane, Pulborough, just after 5pm.

It means there are delays to Southern services running between Horsham and Arundel railway stations until at least 8pm today (June 12).

A spokesman for the rail provider issued advice to passengers, saying: “We currently have several trains in the immediate area.

“If you are on these trains, please listen for advice from the crews onboard and speak to them if you need assistance.”

The British Transport Police have been contacted for comment.
