Balfour Beatty is working in partnership with East Sussex County Council to manage the highways service across East Sussex. We will soon be carrying out carriageway investigations on the A259 Bexhill Road, St. Leonards.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out from Monday 8 December to Saturday 20 December 2025 between 7pm and 4am. We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
We are carrying out site investigations, including trial holes and core holes, to gather information about the condition of the road, to help plan possible future works to the carriageway.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working from the east side of the Ravenside roundabout to approximately 100 yards east of Harley Shute Road.
The road will remain open with temporary traffic lights in place for the duration of the works.
Information for residents and businesses
Parking: If required, we will put out ‘no parking’ signs and cones on the site to advise where parking is restricted. Please avoid parking in these locations as it will delay our works.
Weather: All of these works are subject to favourable weather conditions, for example heavy rain may affect the progress of the works.
Properties close to the carriageway may notice some noise, flashing lights, or reversing sirens. We will do our utmost to keep this to a minimum.
We would like to take this opportunity to apologise in advance for any inconvenience or disruption this work may cause, however this forms part of our continuing improvement for the East Sussex highway network. Should you have any concerns regarding these works, you can contact us at eshcomms@balfourbeatty.com.
Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
