How will this impact highway users?
Access to the road will be restricted for the duration of the works.
We will be working between in two locations:

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.
Bus service: Bus number 57 will be provided access for the 20:17 service to Bexhill and the 21:04 service to Eastbourne. All other services will be diverted.
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.
