Balfour Beatty is working in partnership with East Sussex County Council to manage the highways service across East Sussex. We will soon be carrying out drainage works in Down Street, Nutley, to help alleviate flooding.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out from Monday 9 to Thursday 12 June 2025 between 9:30am and 4pm.
Any changes to the dates or times will be displayed on the advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
These works involve repairing and replacing drainage pipes under the carriageway. We will also be installing a new manhole cover.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working between the junction of Nether Lane and continuing approximately 630 metres south. Access will be restricted to residents while we are working, with traffic diverted via Nether Lane, A22, A272 and vice versa. The road will be closed 24 hours a day while these works take place.
For access, please approach the closure point and speak to the site team. This is for access only and there will be no through route. There may be a short delay while we make it safe for you to pass, and your vehicle will be escorted by site marshals. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained 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.
Waste collection: Access will be granted for any waste collection.
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 notice some noise, flashing lights, or reversing sirens. We will do our utmost to keep this to a minimum.
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.
