Map showing location 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 site investigation works on North Trade Road, Battle.
The investigation involves trial holes and core holes drilled at various points into the carriageway surface to allow for testing of the carriageway surface. The results of these investigations will allow us to determine the condition of the carriageway and the extent of larger works which are currently planned to take place in 2024.
When do they start?
Work will begin on Monday 29 January and continue until Friday 9 February. We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
How will this impact highway users?
The road will remain open to through traffic with temporary traffic signals in place between 6pm and midnight.
The investigations will be taking place between the junction with the A2100 London Road and the junction with Kane Hythe Road. The team will be moving along the road throughout the night.
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 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.
Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
