Drainage

We look after and clean 98,000 roadside gullies in East Sussex.

We routinely clean the gullies every 3, 6, 12 or 24 months depending on how quickly they fill up.

We also maintain over 500km of ditches and 10,000 road side grips (shallow ditches connecting the road edge to the roadside ditch).
