Hailsham High Street: Vehicular Access and Parking

A series of temporary measures will be introduced by East Sussex Highways in Hailsham High Street during August, as part of the Government’s COVID-19 recovery scheme to enable more people to walk and cycle where possible, and support safe social distancing in areas where people congregate in the town centre.

The scheme will involve restrictions to access, only permitting buses, taxis, blue badge holders, cyclists and delivery to businesses. Additionally, on-street parking bays will be suspended and barriers will be installed to widen the footways.
