Dear Stakeholder
Notification of major gas works: Coast Road, Pevensey Bay
I am writing to make you aware of our forthcoming upgrade of our gas network in Coast Road, Pevensey Bay. This essential work involves the replacement of old metal gas mains with new plastic pipe to ensure we continue to provide a safe and reliable gas supply to the local area. Our contractor I & G will undertake this work.
So that we can minimise disruption we have carefully consulted and planned our works in partnership with East Sussex County Council. We have co-ordinated our project with their work to repair the road surface in Coast Road. Once we have upgraded our pipes, East Sussex County Council will complete its road surface repairs. We have agreed to begin our work on 01 November and we anticipate the total project including road surface repairs will take approximately Nine weeks.
To ensure everyone’s safety, Coast Road will be closed in five phases over Nine weeks.
All businesses in the local area will remain open as usual. We do have a compensation scheme in place for local businesses which suffer a genuine loss of trade because of our work. Packs are available from our website, sgn.co.uk, via the Publications section.
So that we can explain more about our work, we have organised a drop-in session at Ethel Wood Community Centre, 129 Coast Road, Pevensey Bay, East Sussex BN24 6NS on Wednesday 19 October. You are welcome to attend at any time between 4.30pm and 8pm.
Members of our project team will be on hand to answer questions and talk through our plans in more detail. Representatives from East Sussex County Council will also be there to discuss the carriageway repairs.
We are also designing a leaflet for this project that will include information about the phases and the road closure. Once this has been finalised I will share this with you.
I hope I have been able to reassure you of our commitment to deliver a safe project and keep you updated. If you have any further questions, please let me know.
Kind regards
Dan Edwards, Stakeholder Engagement Support Manager
