Update: 8 May 2026
Works have now resumed with the ecological investigations completed. Thank you for your patience.
What are we doing?
Balfour Beatty is working in partnership with East Sussex County Council to manage the highways service across East Sussex. As part of this, we will be completing retaining wall repairs on Old London Road, Hastings.
When do they start?
Works will be carried out from Tuesday 5 May to Sunday 24 May 2026, between 7pm and 5am, weekdays and 8am and 5pm, weekends. We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing and how will this impact highway users?
We will be working outside Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School. The majority of the work is being carried out overnight to minimise disruption to the school and road users.
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 experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process and those properties may experience flashing lights and reversing sirens.
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.
