Map showing location 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 surfacing works in Cherry Gardens Hill, Groombridge.
Once completed, these works will improve the condition of the road surface.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out between Monday 11 March and Thursday 28 March. We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
As part of this Highway Maintenance Scheme, we will be carrying out repairs to:
- Kerbs,
- Granite setts,
- Drainage assets – including inspection chamber covers,
- Refreshment and replacement of road markings.
How will this impact highway users?
The team will be working between the junction of Ladies Mile and Corseley Road junction.
The road will be closed to through traffic between 7am and 6pm.
A diversion route will be in place via B2188, B2026, B2110 & vice versa.
Residents will usually be able to access properties during the works but will need to liaise with the on-site team to agree times, as well as access and egress routes on the night.
Please also liaise with the on-site team if you have any appointments or deliveries during this time.
Refuse collections will also be accommodated by agreement with the local collection team and access for emergency vehicles will be supported 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 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.
