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 drainage works in Fletching Lane and Lane End Common, Newick.
Once completed, these works will help alleviate flooding to the carriageway and private property.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out on Wednesday 15 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 team will be working between the junction of Newick Hill and the A275 East Grinstead Road junction.
The road will be closed to through traffic between 9:30am and 4pm. A diversion route will be in place via Newick Hill, A272 Western Road, A275 East Grinstead Road & vice versa.
If you need vehicle access, 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 maintained 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.
