Temporary Road Closure – High Street, East Grinstead – Vintage Bus Day

West Sussex County have advised us that planned surface improvements to Forest Way in East Grinstead are to be carried out by contractors in the Spring, which will involve the route being closed from Herontye Drive to the A22. The surface on this very well used section of path has deteriorated over the years, leaving it very bumpy particularly for cyclists, pushchairs and mobility vehicles. The improvements will re-profile the path to improve drainage and re-top with compacted limestone dust for a smoother surface. There are no specific dates as yet but it is hoped this will be complete by Easter.

Temporary Road Closure – Turners Hill Road

Please be advised that West Sussex County Council has received a request for Temporary Traffic Regulation as follows:

We are advised that UK Power Networks have closed Sandhawes Hill under an emergency notice to repair a fault. AS this was not planned works we have been unable to give notice and our thanks to the public who alerted us to the closure. We are told that it will be closed until 5 February unless UKPN need to extend for significant reasons.

King Street car park will be closed with effect 13 February for a period of up to 4 days to carry out essential resurfacing and relining of the whole car park.

The contractors have been delayed and so the resurfacing work and closure of the car park has now been moved to the following week starting Tuesday 19 to Friday 22 Februrary.

West Sussex County Council proposes to make a new permanent Traffic Regulation Order that will introduce double yellow lines on lengths of Charlwoods Road and various adjoining roads in East Grinstead to prevent parked cars obstructing the flow of traffic, particularly for large commercial vehicles trying to access business premises in the area.

The link below will direct you to the TRO Team’s consultation page, containing plans showing the proposed restrictions, the draft Order, public notice and statement of reasons for making the Order.  I should be grateful if you could accept this message as the formal consultation on the proposal.

If you would like to make any comments or objections to the proposal please make them to Martin.Moore@westsussex.gov.uk by e-mail before 7 February 2013.  If no objections are received before this date we will install the proposed lines.
