Busy road between Eastbourne and Hastings to be closed overnight for 12 day works

The A259 works, to be carried out by contractors on behalf of Highways England, between Pevensey Roundabout and Little Common Roundabout will start on June 15 and end on June 27.

The carriageway resurfacing works means the road will be closed both ways overnight between 8pm and 6am each day.

A clearly signed diversion will be in place suitable for all types of vehicles, according to Highways England.
