Map of works area and diversion route
Balfour Beatty is working in partnership with East Sussex County Council to manage the highways service across East Sussex. We will soon be carrying out drainage works on Goldsmiths Avenue, Crowborough, to help alleviate flooding in the area.
When do they start?
Works will be carried out from Monday 19 May to Wednesday 4 June 2025 between 9am and 4pm, weekdays only. There will be no work on Monday 26 May.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
These works involve replacing broken drainage pipes and covers.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working between the A26 junction and the junction of St Johns Road. Access will be restricted to residents while we are working, with traffic diverted via St Johns Road, A26 and vice versa.
For access, please approach the closure point and speak to the site team. This is for access only and there will be no through route. There may be a short delay while we make it safe for you to pass, and your vehicle will be escorted by site marshals. 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.
Waste collection: Access will be granted for any waste collection.
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
We would like to take this opportunity to apologise in advance for any inconvenience or disruption this work may cause, however this forms part of our continuing improvement for the East Sussex highway network.
Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
