Road reconstruction works planned for Lincoln’s Outer Circle Drive

Resurfacing (branding removed)

Works to improve Outer Circle Drive will start in early October.

Cllr Michael Cheyne, executive member for highways, said: “Outer Circle Drive in Lincoln is in need of repair so we will be carrying out a full resurfacing of the area starting early next month. 

“Due to this location being a residential area, we will carry out our resurfacing works during daytime hours so people living there aren’t disturbed at night. We will also maintain access to properties at all times, although there may be instances when this is limited depending on the location and type of work happening.  

“I’d like to thank residents and their visitors in advance for their patience and co-operation whilst we complete our works in the safest and most efficient manner possible.”
