Newhaven Port Access Road Bridge Beam Deliveries. Message from BAM Nuttall Ltd:-
Dear Local Resident,
As you may be aware between the 13th and 15th of November 2019 the Port Access Road project took delivery of the first three bridge beams to the south compound within Newhaven Port.
We are now expecting the second delivery to take place between the 4th and 6th of December 2019. This delivery, comprising of three braced pairs again, will see the longest beams being delivered out of the 3 sets.
The beams are just short of 50m long and with the transport vehicle will be approximately 60m in length. This is equivalent to 6 London double decker busses.
Due to their size they are being transported under an Abnormal Load Movement Order and will have a police escort. The time of the movement is dictated to us by the local authorities and written into the Order.
The first beam in this set is due to transit through East Sussex on Wednesday 4th December arriving in Newhaven between 12:00hrs and 14:00hrs. During this time delays are to be expected as the beams manoeuvre through the local road systems.
The route of the beams is as follows:
Leaves the layby on the A23 at Warninglid, where it will have been parked overnight, with police escort. It will then travel south on the A23 to the A23/A27 interchange where it will negotiate the interchange and head west on the A27. The beam will then leave the A27 at the Shoreham junction where it will then join the A27 again this time heading east. The beam will leave the A27 at the Beddingham roundabout where it will head south on the A26 towards Newhaven. On entering Newhaven the beam will turn left on to B2109 by Paradise Park. It will then head towards the roundabout at the junction with the A259 where it will head west towards Newhaven town Centre. At the next roundabout by MacDonald’s it will turn left onto McKinley Way and into the BAM Nuttall site.
Residents are requested not to park on McKinley Way to avoid issues with the beams transiting to their destinations.
