Road studs are being installed overnight along the A15 on Ermine Street between Caenby Corner up to the B1205.

The road stud programme is being carried out as part of the surface dressing works which have happened along the A15 between the Atterby Junction and the B1205 Grayingham Junction.

Although around 60% of the road stud replacement has already been completed utilising convoy working, the remaining 40% is in an area where a convoy isn’t suitable. The remaining road stud replacement works require a full road closure to ensure the safety of the crew and road users.

The works will happen on Thursday, October 27th from 9pm to 6am.

A diversion route will be in place for the duration of the closure and will be signposted along the A631, B1398, B1205 and vice versa.

Access to the service station at the Caenby Corner roundabout and local access for residents and businesses further along the site will be maintained.

Karen Cassar, assistant director for Highways said: “This last part of the road stud programme along the route will be completed in one night, which will dramatically reduce the disruption for road users.

“I want to thank everyone affected by these works for their patience whilst we get the final 40% of studs into the road.”

Works to rebuild a deteriorating section of the A52 that runs through the centre of Ingoldmells will start at the end of October.

The works will begin on Monday 31 October, lasting for 7 weeks (subject to weather).

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: “Following an incredibly busy summer for the coast, we’re taking the opportunity to rebuild a heavily used, but deteriorating, section of the A52 in Ingoldmells.

“This scheme will involve fully resurfacing just under a quarter mile of road here, along with sections of roads that connect to it. In fact, over 2400 tonnes of new material in the carriageway and 360 tonnes of additional materials in the surrounding footways will be used during the 7week project.”

The footway works will be ongoing under temporary lights.

A52 Chapel Road / High Street / Skegness Road & Sea Lane

Cllr Davies continued: “We’ll be doing everything we can to keep disruption to a minimum, including re-opening the A52 through Ingoldmells on weekends and carrying the works out as efficiently as possible.

“When finished, these improvements will make travelling in and around the coast much safer and more comfortable for all road users.”
