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 drainage works in Rattle Road, Westham following multiple reports of flooding to both private property and the highway.
When do they start?
Work will begin on Tuesday 5 December and continue for 2 days. 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 excavating and repairing the current drainage system in this location, along with gully lids being unjammed. We will also be installing 4 inspection chambers to access the carrier pipe in the future.
How will this impact highway users?
The road will remain open with temporary traffic signals in place between 9:30am and 4pm.
The team will be working in the vicinity of property number 59.
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, 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.
