Map of works area and diversion route
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 multiple refreshments on Park Avenue, Eastbourne.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out on Friday 21 March to Saturday 22 March 2025. The road will be closed between 7pm and 6am.
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 applying a layer of coloured, high friction surface material to the existing carriageway to reduce the skid risk of the surface. We will also be installing a new school warning sign and refreshing the road markings.
How will this impact highway users?
The team will working between Willingdon Road and Kings Drive.
Access to the road will be restricted for residents for the duration of works. Traffic will be diverted via Kings Drive, Willington Roundabout, Willingdon Road, Park Avenue and vice versa.
If you need vehicle access, please discuss this with the team on site. Please bear in mind there will be delays whilst the area is made safe and your vehicle is escorted by site marshals. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
The team will also be working on site between 9am and 3pm on Friday 21 March, however there will be minimal disruption to road users.
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 waste collection.
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.
