The university said it is liaising with the police and West Sussex County Council to take the 'necessary legal action to move them on' from its multi-million pound technology park in Upper Bognor Road.

A spokesman said: “We have temporarily closed the car park at our Tech Park on our Bognor Regis campus due to the presence of travellers.
