Buttons Lane, Wadhurst – road closure 9-10 July 2024

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 bridge refurbishment works in Buttons Lane, Wadhurst.

What does the work involve?

These works involve replacing road signs and trimming tree branches for visibility purposes.

When do they start?

Work will take place on Tuesday 9 July and Wednesday 10 July between 7am and 7pm.

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 at the Walland Railway Bridge.

Access to the road will be restricted for residents for the duration of works. Traffic will be diverted via Churchsettle Lane, Stonegate Road, Moseham Hill, Darbys Lane, Brinkers Lane, and vice-versa.

If you need vehicle access, please discuss this with the team on site. Please bear in mind there will be delays whilst the area is made safe and your vehicle is escorted by site marshals.

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.
