Works to fix Polegate traffic lights delayed
East Sussex Highways confirmed the roadworks at the crossroads in Eastbourne Road at its junction with Wannock Road are aimed to be completed by Tuesday (February 19) – later than the planned date of February 17.
A spokesperson for the authority said, “The work has been put back by a few days due to adverse weather conditions so we’re now aiming to have the new lights in place and switched on for Tuesday.”
