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 School Lane, Old Heathfield.
Once completed, these works will help alleviate flooding to the carriageway and private property.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out between Monday 8 April and Tuesday 9 April. 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 team will be working from the junction with Weavers Rock Lane, east to the Heathfield Park cricket club entrance.
The road will be closed to through traffic between 9am and 4pm.
The diversion route will be via Weavers Rock Lane, Sandy Cross Lane, B2203 Hailsham Road, A265 Burwash Road, B2096 School Hill and vice versa.
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.
Permit Reference: EA002HM-0058-PH3-01
