The Coastal Carriageway improvement project will see the following works carried out along Lincolnshire’s coast:
- Full carriageway reconstruction of Old Roman Bank (from the A52 at Sandilands to the North Sea Observatory in Chapel St Leonards), including replacing street lights, widening the road where possible and building passing bay
- Full carriageway reconstruction of A1104 between Mablethorpe and Malty-Le-Marsh
- Full carriageway reconstruction of Broadway and York Road in Sutton on Sea, including widening the footway, reducing the width of Broadway itself, and installing on-street charging points
Aims and benefits
- smoother journeys at the coast for those travelling by car
- improved footway and cycle way facilities for those not travelling by car
Cost and funding
The estimated cost for all three schemes is £8.4 million, with the scheme being funded by a portion of the £20 million capital funding allocated to the county council as part of the Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority devolution deal.
