Traffic has been delayed on the Lewes Road this afternoon after a car broke down opposite the University of Brighton.
Sussex Police has put a contraflow in place while the owner of the white car which has been blocking the lane since 12.30pm waits for it to be recovered.
However, police are considering moving the car themselves as they have been given an estimated wait of 90 minutes for the recovery service to appear.
Brighton and Hove Buses has been informed services may be running late as a result.
