Road Improvements happening in Harmston

Harmston road improvement

Two kilometres of resurfacing works are go for later this Month.

A work programme to deliver an improved route is getting underway on Monday, March 20 with expert crews laying a new road surface to replace the current worn out one.

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: “These works will end up costing in the region of £500,000 to take the current stretch of road down to a deep level before rebuilding the surface in a way that will last a long time.

“Because of what we have to do with the road, we will be carrying out these works across two phases. The first will be a new overlay on Station Road with Phase two seeing the resurfacing of the road on Hill Top and Church Lane carried out.

“We cannot avoid a road closure whilst the work is carried out in this location, so a local diversion will be in place for the duration. This is to secure the safety of road users and our crews working on the roads.

“There will be some disruption, inevitably, for this type of job but where we can, we will try to minimise as much impact on the local community as possible.

"In the meantime, I would like to thank everyone affected for their patience whilst we carry out this stretch of road improvement in the area.”

Dates and times

The works will begin on Monday March 20 and is scheduled to end on Monday April 24. It is worth noting that the length of time for these works could extend due to unforeseen circumstances.

Diversion route

The diversion route will be via A607 Lincoln Road, C109 Tinkers Lane / Hill Top / Station Road (Waddington) and C001 Brant Road / Low Road, and vice versa.
