Roadworks - Mill Hill, Shortbridge

Balfour Beatty is working in partnership with East Sussex County Council to manage the highways service across East Sussex. They will soon be installing new lining on Mill Hill, Shortbridge, to improve overall safety for road users.

When do they start?

Work will be carried out on Thursday 22 January 2026, between 7pm and 6am.

They will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.

How will this impact highway users?

They will be working near Shortbridge Lodge. The road will remain open with temporary traffic lights in place while the work is undertaken.

Information for residents and businesses

Parking: They 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 their 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.

They would like to take this opportunity to apologise in advance for any inconvenience or disruption this work may cause, however this forms part of their continuing improvement for the East Sussex highway network.
