Fourteen-week roadworks in Hailsham to replace water main

South East Water is due to begin the project on 8 October 8, when work starts on replacing an old burst-prone water main with a new 475 metre pipeline from outside Hailsham Cemetery south towards Summerhill.

Construction, which will be undertaken in sections, is estimated to take around 14 weeks to complete and, for the safety of pedestrians, motorists and the company’s work force, temporary traffic lights will be in place for the duration of the work.
