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 site investigation works on A268 Rye Hill, Rye.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out from Monday 22 July 2024 to Wednesday 24 July 2024 between 7am and 7pm.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
The investigation involves trial holes and core holes being drilled at various points into the carriageway surface to allow for testing of the carriageway 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.
How will this impact highway users?
The team will be working between the junction of New England Lane and the junction of Military Road.
The road will remain open with temporary traffic signals in place for the duration of these 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 experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process and those properties may experience flashing lights and reversing sirens.
Permit Reference: EA001HM-1055-SITE-6-6-02
