Map showing location 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 drainage works in Shepherds Hill & Parrock Lane, Coleman's Hatch.

Once completed, these works will help alleviate flooding to the carriageway and private property.

When do they start?

Work will be carried out on Thursday 1 August 2024 and Friday 2 August 2024 between 9:30am and 4pm.

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 at the junction  of Parrock Lane and Shepherds Hill.

Access to the Parrock Lane will be restricted for residents for the duration of works. Traffic will be diverted via Parrock Lane, Cat Street, Shepherds Hill and vice-versa.

There will also be temporary traffic signals in place at Shepherds Hill whilst the workis undertaken.

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 provided 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 experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process and those properties may experience flashing lights and reversing sirens.
