Patching, resurfacing and road-side works will make Kings Street much better.
Karen Cassar, assistant director for Highways at LCC, said: “We are delighted to be able to get this scheme in place for early 2025, the works programme will mean a very positive experience for road users and the local traffic flow.
“In total, this programme will cost around £450,000 to complete and will ensure the life of the road for many years to come.”
Location of works
The works will be carried out at Kings Street, Baston from the junction of Greatford Road (where the works were previously) and will be in place for around 1,500m towards the Langtoft junction.
Dates and times
The works will begin on Monday 13 January and have a scheduled end date of Saturday 25 January. Work times onsite will be from 7.00 to 17.00, subject to suitable weather. Daytime working only.
Traffic management
A road closure is required for the duration of the works with a diversion route in place throughout. It will remain in place 24/7.
Diversion route
The signed diversion route will be: Kings Street / A1175 / A15 Deeping Road and vice versa.
Karen Cassar continued: “While the works will be taking the old surface off the road, rebuilding the lower material and then putting a new surface in, we will also be taking the opportunity to rebuild the haunches at the side of the road too.
“It’s the ideal time to work on the roadsides so we are taking the opportunity to rebuild these areas that have been prone to damage from larger vehicles over the years.
“We will do everything that we can to get this job finished as quickly as possible. Because of the nature of the works and the type of job it involves we will have to put a road closure in place with a like-for-like diversion on the surrounding roads. These measures are there for the safety of the crew and road users.
“I would like to thank everyone effected for their patience and understanding whilst we are delivering the programme of work for Kings Street in Baston.”
