Work will begin to install a new water pipeline on Grantham Road, Waddington from next week, lasting 12 weeks.

Anglian Water engineers will arrive on site on Monday, September 11 to lay 1.5 kilometres of new pipe.

The work is needed to connect the new Green Man Road housing development to the mains water supplies.

The first phase of the work starts on Monday and runs for 12 weeks.

Anglian Water engineers will be working between the junctions with Granary Close and the B1178.

Whilst the work takes place there will be temporary traffic lights in place on Grantham Road.

The lane closure will be in place to keep staff and customers safe whilst work is completed using open excavations along the road and heavy machinery.

Sarah Dobson from Anglian Water said: “This is a vital project needed to bring water supplies to new homes in Green Man Road.

“We know this type of work can be disruptive and that’s why we have worked closely with Lincolnshire County Council’s highways department to minimise the disruption.

“During the morning and evening rush hours the traffic lights will be manually controlled to help keep traffic flowing along this vital local route.”
