Works will be taking place between 8pm and 6am.

A spokesperson for East Sussex Highways added: “We will be working from Shinewater roundabout to approximately 20 metres before the Friday Street junction roundabout.

“The road will remain open with temporary traffic lights in place and work will be carried out in phases to minimise disruption.

"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.

“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 notice some noise, flashing lights, or reversing sirens. We will do our utmost to keep this to a minimum.

“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 [email protected].”
