I think you're talking about near Preston park. It is rather silly and I do just use the road as it's one of those lanes that's up and down from the kerb, round trees etc, so just too much hard work.
Having said there are some very bad and very good cycle lanes in Brighton, as with all parts of the UK.
Vogue Gyratory has been improved a lot for cyclists, at the expense of cars but I haven't come across any ill feeling from drivers.
And there are large parts of Old Shoreham road at the Brighton end that have excellent segregation. To be fair though, it had plenty of space to achieve this. None the less it's a pleasure to ride.
Oh, and Lewes road now is pretty awesome, again decent segregated lanes.

I think it's in Brighton where they spent ££££ on a cycle line which no one uses as apart from it having trees/letter boxes, phones boxes on it there is no way to get on to it if you come out of a side road as the kerb is about half a meter high which means having to get off and pick the bike up to put it on.
Some how I think it was more a little what we are doing effort rather then lets think about what's needed.
