Linking Yapton Road, the B2233, with the runways and taxi roads. The east-west runway extended across the road which necessitated its closure between 1939 and 1958, traffic from south was diverted via Horsemere Green Lane whilst that from the north found itself in a dead end. This also an alternative access point for the Sunday market though the main entrance is at the other end of the runway.
