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 bridge parapet repair works in Darp Lane, Ripe. These works are being carried out following damage caused by a passing vehicle.
When do they start?
Work will take place between Monday 15 April and Friday 3 May. We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
How will this impact highway users?
The road will be closed to through traffic for the duration of these works.
A diversion route will be in place via Mill Lane, Mark Cross Lane & vice versa.
If you need vehicle access during these works, please discuss this with the team on site. Please bear in mind there will be delays whilst the area is made safe and your vehicle is escorted by site marshalls.
Access for emergency vehicles will be provided 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.
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: EA007GC24-56826-02
