Here's what East Sussex County Council said in a press release in November 2008:
'Cliffe work finishes, new pedestrian zone takes effect
Wednesday 12 November 2008
A new pedestrian zone and new access arrangements for traffic now take effect in Cliffe High Street, following Southern Gas Networks' completion of their streetworks in time for Bonfire Night.'

can't be worse that the shambles in Offham Rd at Weald Court/close - never seen a worker there yet and this disrupts a major route into the town - an absolute disaster particularly given that now they've started closing it up I can still smell gas!!!
