A27 road

The A27 is a major road in southern England. It runs from its junction with the A36 at Whiteparish (near Salisbury) in the county of Wiltshire, follows the south coast of Hampshire and West Sussex, and terminates at Pevensey in East Sussex.

The section between Southampton and Portsmouth was superseded by the M27 motorway, but between Portsmouth and Lewes the A27 remains a trunk road serving the conurbations of South Hampshire, Chichester, Worthing / Brighton and Hove and Eastbourne.

It is the westernmost road in Zone 2 in the UK road numbering system.
