Map of works area 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 investigations in Norman Road, St. Leonards, to help alleviate flooding.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out from Monday 16 June to Wednesday 18 June 2025 between 8pm and 4am.
Any changes to the dates or times will be displayed on the advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
These works involve CCTV surveys of the underground drainage system, using high-pressured water to clear the pipework.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working from the junction of Mercatoria Road to the junction of London Road. Access will be restricted to residents while we are working, with traffic diverted via East Ascent, Gardner Way, A259, A2102 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.
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.
