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 drainage investigations in Beacon Road, Crowborough, to help alleviate flooding.

When do they start?

Work will be carried out from Monday 14 July to Thursday 17 July 2025 between 8pm and 4am.

Any changes to the dates or times will be displayed on the advanced warning signs on site.

What are we doing?

These works involve CCTV surveys of the underground drainage system. We will also be using high pressured water to clear the pipework.

How will this impact highway users?

We will be working between the junction of Flelden Lane and the junction of Melfort 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.

Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
