Consultation on extending the current Anti-Social Driving Public Spaces Protection Order for a further three years. The PSPO prohibits activities such as speeding, racing, and excessive noise from vehicles. The consultation began on 4th July 2025 and will end on 1st August 2025.

We have been asking what is most important to local people about Eastbourne seafront, including what they would like to see change or stay the same over the next 25 years. We are using this to create a vision that will help revitalise the town have a lasting positive impact on the environment and wellbeing of local people now and for future generations.
