Thank you to everyone for their support in lobbying for this work.

Access to Station Road will be restricted for residents for the duration of the works. The road will be closed for 24 hours each day with a diversion route in place but emergency vehicles will still have access. At times there will be 'no parking' signs at different locations. Residents and businesses will receive further information by post and there will be advance road signs. Details will be provided at www.eastsussexhighways.com.
Before the resurfacing takes place there will be investigatory works from Monday 8th July to Saturday 13th July 7pm to 6am.
