Drainage and footway works planned for Roman Bank in Skegness

Roman Bank drainage

Works to rebuild sections of footway and repair drainage on Roman Bank will start next month.

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: “Following on from our major reconstruction works to Roman Bank that ended last year, we’ll be carrying out a final set of improvements to the area between North Shore Road and Brancaster Drive next month to ensure a longer life for the footways and drainage system.

“As part of these improvements, we’ll be rebuilding sections of the footway that have deteriorated and are uneven to ensure the safety of residents and anyone else using them. 

“We’ll also be taking the opportunity to repair the drainage here to better prevent flooding and ponding on the footpaths that could affect people’s homes.”

Dates and timeframes

Monday 17 April for up to four weeks

Traffic management

Temporary traffic signals from 8am to 6pm (weekdays only and excluding bank holidays)

North Shore Road pedestrian crossing switched off throughout the scheme, with a temporary diversion in place around the works site

Location of works

Between North Shore Road and Brancaster Drive

Cllr Davies added: “We'll be doing everything we can to keep disruption in the area to a minimum throughout the project, including carrying works out under temporary signals instead of a road closure to help keep people moving. 
 
“In the meantime, I want to thank everyone for their patience in advance.”
