@esccroads Why on earth are you carrying out roadworks on the A22 Uckfield during rush hour and not doing this at night? Massive queues and the whole town is gridlocked! 😡 Idiots!
Our pothole repair teams are working across the county today, including Hastings, Salehurst, Lewes, Staplecross and South Chailey.
Please be advised we will also be working in other locations, and may be required to attend emergencies outside of our schedule.

⚠️ EMERGENCY WORKS ⚠️
We are aware of utility works being carried out overnight on Eastbourne Road, #Halland, however due to a failed reinstatement, the team are back on site today under temporary traffic lights to make the area safe. Thank you.
@esccroads Will you sort out the idiots doing the roadworks on the A22 at Halland! A trench across the road is causing damage to vehicles! Also, the timings of the lights are bad, causing massive queues! A lot of A22 traffic is also using Knowle Lane, which is unsuitable!
⚠️WARNING: This post describes a fatal crash.
A teenager who killed a 74-year-old pensioner while joyriding in a client's £84,000 Nissan GTR has been jailed for four years.
Lewis Meadows, 18 at the time, was driving the "particularly powerful" sports car, which he had taken without permission from his father's valet business in November last year.
Witnesses saw Meadows driving "like a complete nutter" before he lost control on Church Road in Felixstowe, swerved onto the footpath, and smashed into Mary Kinsey, who was walking to the shops. She died at the hospital.
Videos from Meadows' phone, played in court, showed him driving recklessly in other cars, revving engines, and shouting.
Meadows pleaded guilty to causing the death of Mary. In a letter read to the court, he wrote: "It's all down to me. It's all my fault. My choices, my stupidity... I know I must be punished."
The victim's husband, Ken Kinsey, said in a heartbreaking statement, "I miss her terribly every day. I come back to an empty house that used to feel like our home."
The judge, Richard Kelly, told Meadows he was "deliberately trying to push this very powerful car's capabilities" in a residential street, driving it "like a toy."
Meadows was also disqualified from driving for seven years.
