Map of works area
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 carriageway improvements on the A259, White Rock, Hastings.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out on Wednesday 14, Thursday 15 and Friday 16 May 2025, between 7pm to 6am each night.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
We will be carrying out maintenance on the carriageway, which includes patching damaged areas and applying a layer of coloured, high-friction surface material to certain sections to reduce the risk of skidding.
How will this impact highway users?
We will be working between the junctions of Schwerte Way to outside ‘Astral Lodge’.
Access to the road will be restricted to residents only. Traffic will be diverted Eversfield Road, Grand Parade, London Road, A21, A2101 and vice versa.
If you need vehicle 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 slight delay while we make it safe for you to pass, and your vehicle is escorted by site marshals. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
Information for residents and businesses
Parking: 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.
Public Transport: Local bus services have been informed of these works and will be diverted.
Properties close to the carriageway may experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process, and they may be flashing lights and 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.
