As you may be aware, we have been carrying out numerous investigations into the condition of the Gold Bridge. The latest investigation, completed in July, found that the temporary weight restriction could be removed.

Following this, we will be returning to install bollards on to the bridge to prohibit vehicle parking. The bollards will also serve as preventative measures against damage to the structure and bridge railings.

When do they start?

Work will take place on Wednesday 23 October 2024 and Thursday 24 October 2024 between 9am and 3:30pm.

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 remain open to the through traffic with temporary temporary traffic signals in place.

A temporary speed limit reduction of 40mph will also be 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.

Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
