The traffic management approach for the North Hykeham Relief Road project has been designed to strike the right balance between keeping people moving and allowing this vital infrastructure project to be built safely and efficiently.
Our focus is on maintaining traffic flows and ensuring safe working conditions, all while ensuring long-term benefits for the area.
Ongoing traffic management
- Various alterations to Public Rights of Way near to where the relief road is being built
- Temporary traffic signals and reduced speed limits at South Hykeham Road, Brant Road, Grantham Road, and Station Road to facilitate construction of accesses and haul road crossings
- Closure of Somerton Gate Lane
- Diversion route via Hill Top / Station Road / Brant Road.
- Access will be maintained for residents, the allotments, and local businesses from the Station Road / Hill Top end.
Upcoming traffic management
- Monday 19 October for up to seven days - 24/7 closure of Brant Road, between Lincoln Lane Farm (Low Road) and Meadow Lane
- Meadow Lane itself will not be impacted and will remain open throughout.
- Diversion route via Station Road (Waddington) / Hill Top / Grantham Road / Station Road (Harmston), and vice versa.
- Monday 26 October for up to seven days - 24/7 closure of Station Road in Waddington, between Somerville Close and Staple Lane
- Diversion route via Brant Road / Newark Road / right onto Cross O’Cliff Hill / London Road / Grantham Road, and vice versa.
- The Station Road closure has been scheduled to coincide with the October half-term holiday to avoid impacts to school bus services that would normally use the road during term time.
Please note that Stagecoach will turn into Waddington Lowfields, so will not be serving Station Road and part of Brant Road during these works. Service 13 will also not serve Millers Road, Grantham Road, Bar Lane and High Street in uphill Waddington.
