North Mill Bridge Repairs Almost Complete

The following has been received from West Sussex Highways regarding the repairs to the North Mill Bridge. Not long to go until back to normal.

Works have progressed well on the bridge this week and, all being well, it is anticipated that they will be completed on 1 April.

We have planned a road closure the evening/night of the 1 April to remove the concrete barriers and complete the new lining on the bridge.  This lining scheme will remove the centre line and mark the edge of the carriageway so as to provide further warning to motorists of the narrower width.

North Mill Bridge Update 24/3

Easebourne Parish Council received the following update from West Sussex Highways this morning –

I can confirm that the stone for North Mill Bridge is being delivered to site today and the concrete barriers will be moved overnight to provide the necessary working room for the stonemason.  We anticipate the work will be completed towards the end of next week. Once the bridge repairs have been carried out the lining work on the road itself will be undertaken overnight and the lights will be removed from site.

North Mill Bridge Update 14/3

Unfortunately we have received news that the stone delivery has been delayed and the first delivery will now arrive on the 20th March, with the remainder the following week. The Stonemason is due to begin work immediately afterwards. We are still hopeful that the work to rebuild the wall can be completed quicker than the originally estimated 4 weeks.

Defibrillator recovered

After one of the village Defibrillators was taken without purpose earlier in the week we can confirm that it has now been recovered and will shortly be returned inside the phonebox. A big thank you to several residents who quickly responded to our Facebook post asking for any information.

Thankfully the device has not been damaged but this mindless action could well have endangered someone’s life had it been needed. The incident has been reported to the Police who continue to investigate.

If you have any information as to who was involved or saw anything please contact the Police or the Parish Council.

Missing defibrillator equipment

We are missing some equipment from the defibrillator cabinet located in the phone box on the A286 near Egmont Road. Have you used it? Have you seen it? Please urgently get in touch with us if the answer to either of those questions is a yes!
