Travellers to be evicted from Brighton park
Travellers are set to be evicted from a Brighton park this morning (Tuesday July 1) by police.
A group of about 40 vehicles have been on Withdean Park, off London Road, on Friday.
But after complaints from residents about antisocial behaviour, Brighton and Hove City Council and Sussex Police have confirmed the unauthorised encampment will be removed.
Chief Superintendent Nev Kemp, Brighton and Hove’s policing chief confirmed last night the eviction will take place under Section 61 powers.
