John Sisk and Son is building the Eastern Bridge and Link Road, which will join Freeks Lane to Issacs Lane. They will be carrying out new internet network connections and highway improvement works along Isaac's Lane. These essential works are required to facilitate the construction of the new junction which will provide access to the Brookleigh development and relieve pressure on the existing road network by providing a through-road for Brookleigh traffic.

Before Sisk can start their junction works, Openreach will require a full road closure to complete internet network connections. This will take place every night between 20:00 and 05:00 from the evening of Monday 8^th January through to the early morning of Friday 12^th January 2024. A diversion route for vehicles will be clearly displayed with signage and businesses will be open as usual.

To undertake the works safely but also keep one lane open for traffic, it is necessary to install temporary traffic lights on Isaacs Lane from Monday 8^th January through to 3^rd June 2024.

Some of the work may require a full road closure. The proposed date under consideration to complete these works during night working hours of 20:00 to 05:00 is from Friday 31^st May through to Monday 3^rd June 2024. These works cannot be completed during regular working hours due to the impact on the road network. If the closure is required, notification will be given and a diversion route for vehicles will always be clearly displayed with signage and businesses will be open as usual.

All traffic lights will be manned within peak traffic periods to ensure and maintain the flow of traffic, an operative will be on site at all times to ensure that any unexpected flows are properly managed.

The network connection and highway improvement works form part of the Eastern Bridge and Link Road delivered in accordance with the associated planning consent DM/20/3247. Formal notice of the works has been submitted to and approved by Mid Sussex District Council.
