Map 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 drainage investigations on Eridge Road, Crowborough.      

Once completed, these works will help to alleviate flooding in the area.

When do they start?

Work will be carried out on Thursday 27 February 2025 between 9am and 4pm.  

We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.

What are we doing?

The 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?

The team will be working from the junction of The Farthings continuing approximately 250m East. 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 experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process and those properties may experience flashing lights and reversing sirens.
