Works are planned to replace the worn out carriageway on the A159 between Laughton and Brigg Road.
First week of work will no longer require daytime road closures - 08/10/2020
Works to replace the worn out carriageway on the A159, between Laughton and Brigg Road, will start on Monday 12 October.
However, the first week of work will no longer require daytime road closures. Instead, temporary traffic signals will be in place during w/c 12th October.
Daytime road closures start on Monday 19 October for six weeks from 7am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Cllr Clio Perraton-Williams, county councillor for Scotter Rural and executive support councillor for highways, said:
"We have worked closely with the contractor to identify a way of working that will allow us to keep the A159 open during w/c 12th October – reducing the amount of time the road will be closed from seven weeks to six.
"We'll be doing everything we can to minimise disruption throughout the project, including maintaining access for residents, emergency services and buses.
"Once this project is finished, everyone traveling in and around the area should expect smoother and safer journeys."
