Good progress on A46 Welton/Dunholme works avoids need for further night-time closures

Welton and dunholme roundabout

This evening's, and the remaining two weeks of night time closures on the A46 near Dunholme and Welton, will no longer be needed.

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: "Thanks to a combination of efficient working and cooperative weather, the team has been able to complete these essential resurfacing works quicker than expected.

"As a result, we're now in a position to finish this phase of the scheme without the need to close the A46 overnight for the next two weeks, as originally planned.

"This means we can avoid the disruption these closures would have caused, news that I'm sure will be welcomed by everyone travelling in and around the area."

Reconstruction of the western section of the A46 near Dunholme and Welton is scheduled for early next year.

Specific details will be announced closer to the time, once dates and traffic management details have been confirmed.
