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 Wadhurst Road, Mark Cross.

These works will involve repairing the broken drainage systems. Once completed, these works will help alleviate flooding to the carriageway and private property.

When do they start?

Work will be carried out between Wednesday 17 April and Friday 19 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 Earls Farm access, 200m in each direction between 8pm-6am.

The road will be closed to through traffic for the duration of these works. The diversion route will be in place from Wadhurst Road, Tunbridge Wells Road, Mayfield Road, B2099 Wadhurst Road, Riverhall Hill, Frant Road, B2100 Mayfield Lane 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.
