Map of works area
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 highway works on the B2087, Flimwell.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out from Thursday 29 to Saturday 31 May 2025.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
We will be installing high friction surfacing and lining to the carriageway, erecting new speed roundel signs and replacing missing/broken road studs (cats eyes).
How will this impact highway users?
The team will be working between the A21 and Rosemary Lane in phases:
Thursday 29 May: Access will be restricted to residents only between 8pm and 6am.
Friday 30 May: Temporary traffic lights will be in place between 8am and 4pm.
Friday 30 May: Access will be restricted to residents only between 8pm and 6am.
Whilst the road is closed, traffic will be diverted via B2099, A21 and vice versa.
For access, please approach the closure point and speak to the site team. This is for access only and there will be no through route. There may be a short delay while we make it safe for you to pass, and your vehicle will be escorted by site marshals. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
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.
Public Transport: Local bus services have been informed of these works and will be diverted.
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.
Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
