Plans for three major road reconstruction projects revealed

Resurfacing (branding removed)

All three improvement projects – the A17 and A151 near Holbeach, the A52 near Leverton and Ryhall Road in Stamford – will be reviewed by the Highways & Transport Scrutiny Committee on Monday 28 July.

Karen Cassar, assistant director for highways, said: “Later this month, we’ll be presenting three major resurfacing schemes, totalling just under £3 million, at our monthly Highways & Transport Scrutiny committee meeting. 

“All three of these roads – the A17 and A151 near Holbeach, the A52 near Leverton and Ryhall Road in Stamford – are beginning to fail so it’s important to carry these works out as soon as possible, before they became a safety hazard. 

“Once we’ve presented each project and are hopefully given the go-ahead from our relevant executive councillors, we’ll look at appointing contractors and starting all three schemes in September.”

Below is a list of the three resurfacing projects to be discussed at the meeting:

  • Ryhall Road in Stamford (£505,000)
    • 8th September for up to seven weeks
    • A combination of 24/7 temporary traffic signals and two weeks of night-time road closures from 8pm to 6am
  • A151 / A17 in Holbeach and Fleet Hargate (£1,240,000)
    • 1st September for up to 12 weeks
    • Night-time road closures, 8pm to 6am
  • A52 in Leverton and Haltoft End (£1,185,000)
    • 15th September for up to ten weeks
    • Night-time road closures, 7pm to 6am

Additional details will be shared for each scheme closer to their start dates, if taken forward. Affected residents and businesses would also receive letters in advance of the works.
