Map of works area
We will be carrying out footway investigations on Wellington Place, Hastings. Works were originally scheduled to go ahead on Monday 2 February 2026, work will now be carried from Monday 16 March to Wednesday 18 March 2026 between 8am and 5pm.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
As part of preparations for major pavement works planned for later this year, we are returning to this location to confirm the depth and position of buried gas pipes.
How will this impact highway users?
The team will be working between the pedestrian crossing and Jempsons Café.
Both the road and footways will remain open throughout the works, and there is plenty of space for pedestrians. We will be working within our own barriers to keep everyone safe.
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.
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. Should you have any concerns regarding these works, you can contact us at eshcomms@balfourbeatty.com.
Please let us know how we did by leaving feedback. Please note you will be redirected to the East Sussex County Council consultation website.
