When do they start?

Work will be carried out from Tuesday 27 May to Friday 30 May 2025.

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 carriageway and sub-surface repairs and the removal of road studs in preparation of our county wide surface treatment programme which is due to begin later in the year. Once this programme has been confirmed, we will provide effected residents with further information.   

How will this impact highway users?

The team will be working between the Freckley Hollow and Boreham Hill junctions.

The road will be closed 24 hours a day whilst these works are undertaken.

Access will be restricted to residents while we are working with traffic diverted via A271, A2100, A2690, A2691, A269 and vice versa.

Access will be maintained to Ashburnham Place wherever possible, however there may be delays and customers may be asked to follow the diversion route.

If you need vehicle 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 slight delay while we make it safe for you to pass, and your vehicle is escorted by site marshalls. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.

Information for residents and businesses

Parking: 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.

Waste collection: Access will be granted for any waste collection.

Public Transport: Local bus services have been informed of these works and will be diverted.

Properties close to the carriageway may experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process, and they may be 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. Should you have any concerns regarding these works, you can contact us at eshcomms@balfourbeatty.com. 

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