Map of works area
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 in Main Road, Church Lane & Cottage Lane, Westfield, to help alleviate flooding.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out from Wednesday 23 July to Friday 15 August 2025 between 9:30am and 4pm.
Any changes to the dates or times will be displayed on the advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
We will be repairing and replacing broken drainage pipes and covers. We will also be repairing the kerb where the drain is located.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working between the junction of Chapel Lane and continuing South West to just past the junction of Wheel Lane. The road will remain open with temporary traffic in place for 24 hours each day.
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.
Public Transport: The following bus stops will be suspended in this area: esuatgmg & esuatgmd.
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.
