A259 Roadworks

A259 Brenzett to Rye – overnight closures for resurfacing update from National Highways

We recently started resurfacing the A259 between Brenzett and Rye. Having paused this work during the main holiday peak, we’ll soon be returning to finish this essential work.

We’re also using the closures to take the opportunity to replace and improve the road signs along the road.

We’ll continue to work in stages, starting on the evening of Monday 9 October.

To minimise disruption, we’ll work on weeknights between the hours of 8pm and 6am only, when there are fewer vehicles on the road. During the day we will keep the road open as usual.

Closure information
