Local rules
Road works in East Sussex
East Sussex County Council is the highway authority here. Almost every English highway authority now runs a permit scheme under the Traffic Management Act 2004, so works on the road need a permit, applied for through the government's Street Manager service. Minor works usually need 3 working days' notice, standard works 10 and major works 3 months.
Main roads across East Sussex include the A21, A22, A23, A26, A27, A229, A259 and A272. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of Kent, West Sussex and Brighton and Hove.
