Map of works area

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 carrying out carriageway investigation works on A265 High Street, Burwash.

What does the work involve?

The investigation involves multiple holes being drilled at various points into the carriageway to allow for testing of the sub-surface. The results of these investigations will allow us to determine the condition of the carriageway and the extent of larger works which may be required later in the year.

When do they start?

Work will take place from Monday 14 October 2024 to Tuesday 22 October 2024 between 7pm to 6am.

We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.

How will this impact highway users?

The team will be working between the junction of Batemans Lane to the end of the 30mph speed restriction as you enter Etchingham Road.

The road will remain open with temporary traffic lights in place whilst the work is undertaken.

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.
