Contractors working on new water mains on Grantham Road in Waddington will return to the site for two months.
The installation of 300m of new water pipe will resume on Monday, February 5 until the end of March.
Pipes will connect the new Green Man Road housing development to the mains water supply.
Work first began in September, but Anglian Water explained the original 12 week timeframe was extended due to unsuitable ground conditions.
Engineers will be working between the junctions of Vicarage Road and the B1178.
During this time there will be temporary traffic lights in place on Grantham Road and a lane closure to keep staff and customers safe whilst work is completed using open excavations along the road and heavy machinery.
An Anglian Water spokesperson said: “We were due back in January to complete the works, but unfortunately we then needed to wait until the housing developer has completed the sewage system for the new development.
“This is a vital project needed to bring water supplies to new homes on 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.”

But, despite the looming threat, there is a prevailing sense of confidence among the community, suggesting that further flooding is unlikely.
News that a £165,000 improvement project on the Handley Monument in Sleaford will commence early next year has been supported by local residents, who feel it is a much needed addition to the town centre, but it hasn’t come without its fair share of criticism.
North Kesteven District Council unveiled its plans for the historic Handley Monument in Sleaford, with a view to improving the surrounding area and also lighting up the monument to attract more attention to its role in the town’s history.
