The Community Crossings Initiative will see twelve new pedestrian crossings built throughout Lincolnshire.


The locations for the new or improved pedestrian crossing facilities are:

  • A16 Main Road in Stickney
  • A52 Swineshead Road in Boston (downtown near Alban Retail Park)

  • A1500 Tillbridge Lane in Sturton by Stow (adjacent to B1241)
  • High Street in Blyton (near the primary school)
  • B1397 London Road in Wyberton
  • Spalding Road in Holbeach

As part of the early planning for the initiative, local members were asked to submit for consideration crossing locations within their divisions. These projects were then sifted, ahead of carrying out feasibility and buildability studies for the shortlisted projects.
