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 lighting replacements on Lansdown Place, Lewes.
When do they start?
Works will be carried out from Tuesday 24 June to Thursday 26 June 2025 between 7pm and 4am. 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 two street lights and an illuminated sign with new upgraded equipment as it has reached the end of its working life.
How will this impact highway users?
The team will working at two locations to carry out these works.
Outside number 28 and at the junction of Walwers Lane, to replace two street lights.
We will also be working at the junction of Station Road to replace an illuminated sign.
Access will be restricted for residents whilst the work is taking place, and traffic will be diverted via Friars Walk, High Street, A277, Western Road, Winterbourne Hollow, Bell Lane and the B2193. This diversion is one way only due to one-way roads in the area.
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.
Properties close to the carriageway may notice some noise, flashing lights, or reversing sirens. We will do our utmost to keep this to a minimum.
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.
