Newhaven is served by the A26 road, which provides a route northeast to Maidstone, and the A259 between Folkestone and Emsworth. It is just under nine miles east of Brighton and twelve miles west of Eastbourne. Due to its sandy beaches and proximity to the South Downs, Newhaven is popular for staycations, so you may encounter congestion during the summer when more people visit. The town has two railway stations - Town and Harbour - and regular buses to Brighton and Lewes.

Since Newhaven is on the coast, cars in this area may experience a higher level of corrosion on key components, requiring them to be replaced more often. The bodywork starts to rust first; other parts most at risk include the brake callipers, nuts, and bolts. You can help to prevent this from happening by regularly washing your car, especially after a trip to the beach. Since rust spreads and eats away at metal components, it's best to get it fixed sooner rather than later. FixMyCar can help you find a bodywork specialist near Newhaven.
