Map of works area
We will be soon be carrying out targeted carriageway patching repairs on Wardsbrook Road and Church Street, Ticehurst. We will also be clearing leaves, silt and debris from the drains, in preparation for surface dressing works planned for later on this year.
When do they start?
Works will be carried out from Wednesday 1 July to Saturday 4 July 2026, 8am - 5pm weekdays and 8:30am - 3pm on the weekend.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working between Sheepstreet Lane & St Mary's Lane. The road will be closed to through traffic, with a signed diversion route in place via the B2099, Stonegate Road, Bardown Road, Cottenden Road, Sheepstreet Lane and vice versa.
For safety, access to properties within the works area will be limited and managed during our working hours. If you need access, please speak to the team on site, as arrangements and routes may change as work progresses.
Please bear in mind, there could also be a delay while the area is made safe for you to pass and your vehicle may be escorted by site marshalls. This is for properties with direct access within the closure area only and there will be no through route.
Information for residents and businesses
Buses: Any affected bus services have been informed and will be diverted.
Noise: Properties close to the carriageway may notice some noise, flashing lights, or reversing sirens. We will do our best to keep this to a minimum.
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.
