Major £246k resurfacing works at Wainfleet to create 'better ride quality'
Major resurfacing works at Wainfleet costing £246,000 are set to create ‘better ride quality’ for the route.
The works – starting along High Street from the railway crossing to the Market Place – are set to begin on Tuesday, July 15, and take around three weeks to complete.
Karen Cassar added: “These works will involve a crew replacing the existing road surface, which has reached the end of its lifecycle.
“This improvement is another part of our ongoing road uplift across the county and because of the nature of the work, we have to put a diversion route using like-for-like roads in place. This is for the safety of road users and the crew.
“However, to lessen the disruption to the local traffic network where we can, we will lift the diversion routes as much as possible at the end of each shift.
"Our night crew will also ensure that machines are not left running when not working and each machine is fitted with the most up-to-date noise suppressing technology.
“Ultimately, the change will be very obvious to all who use the route and by doing this we are securing many more years of life for the road. I would like to thank everyone effected for their patience and understanding whilst we are delivering the improvement scheme for Wainfleet.”
