The M23 smart motorway has fully opened after years of roadworks.

All speed restrictions on the stretch between the M25 and Gatwick Airport were lifted at 06:00 BST.

The hard shoulder of the motorway was converted to a new fourth traffic lane in each direction, boosting capacity by a third, Highways England said.

"The upgraded section of the M23 between junction 8 (M25) & junction 10 (Gatwick) is now fully open, with four running lanes and new technology to keep traffic flowing."

Henry Smtih, the MP for Crawley, says he has asked the Department for Transport to keep safety concerns about the lack of a hard shoulder for motorists who break down under review.

Nine state schools across Brighton and Hove look likely to have to cut the number of classes that they offer – and between them shed more than a dozen jobs.

The reduction is expected to lead to a loss of 360 spaces in eight primary schools and one secondary school.

Education chiefs have warned that, without action, between a fifth and a quarter of primary school places could go unfilled by September 2023.

By then, an estimated 2,191 children are forecast to start in reception classes, with 629 empty places.

In the current school year about one in seven primary school seats are empty, with 2,517 children and 393 surplus spaces.

Conservative councillor Vanessa Brown told a virtual meeting of Brighton and Hove City Council’s children, young people and skills committee: "Years ago we were desperately expanding and building new primary schools so it’s quite sad to see them being reduced in size now. But we do have to work with the numbers that we have.”

Labour's Les Hamilton told the meeting. “There’s a general awareness in the city when I speak to people in schools.

"The head teachers say, ‘yes, we appreciate you’ve got a problem. Something must be done about it but please don’t include our school in it’."

The leader of Worthing Borough Council says a rise of 25 coronavirus cases in the resort in a week is down to a “specific and contained outbreak”.

The town has seen cases rise from eight to 33 in seven days. And its rate of infection per 100,000 is now at 29.8.

But local council leader Daniel Humphreys told BBC Radio Sussex the rise is believed to be linked to a party of young people.

Elsewhere in Sussex, cases are also up in Chichester, Arun, Wealden and Rother. But both Hastings and Crawley are seeing the number of cases dropping off.

An NHS trust has paid tribute to a "much-loved" mental health nurse working in East Sussex who died last week after contracting coronavirus.

Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust said Wilbald Tesha, known as Tesha, who worked most recently in Eastbourne, had dedicated 30 years to the NHS.

Sam Allen, chief executive of the trust, which provides mental health and learning disability services across Sussex and Hampshire, said: "My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues in Eastbourne at this incredibly difficult time.

She added: "I have heard many, many wonderful things about Tesha, about what a kind, caring and compassionate nurse he was – a good friend to many and someone who would do anything to help another."

Mr Tesha grew up in Tanzania and prior to his death he had been developing a scheme to support children and families from his village. A JustGiving page has been set up in his memory.
