ESCC Drainage repairs - Church Street, Fletching 11 and 12 August 2025
Fletching Parish Council
Balfour Beatty is working in partnership with East Sussex County Council to manage the highways service across East Sussex. As part of this, they will be carrying out drainage repairs on Church Street, Fletching.
When do they start?
Work will be carried out between Monday 11 August 2025 and Tuesday 12 August 2025 between 9am and 4pm.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
What are we doing?
These works involve root cutting in the drainage system and repairs to the pipework. We will also be clearing the pipework with high pressured water to remove any blockages.
How will this impact highway users?
The team will be working close to the junction of the High Street and continue approximately 140 metres South East along Church Street.
Access will be restricted for residents whilst the works are taking place with traffic diverted via High Street, North Hall Lane, A275, A22, A272, Ruston Bridge Road 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 marshalls. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
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.
Bus service: Arrangements will be made for allowing access for buses.
Waste collection: Access will be maintained for waste collection.
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 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.
