Bourne road improvement in November

Bourne road improvement in November geographical map

Resurfacing, kerbing and drainage work will update the road for all.

Karen Cassar, Assistant Director for highways, said: “These works will not only improve the route surface for road users, but the kerb and drainage works will also mean heavy rain can be directed better during downpours.

“The works will cost in excess of £500,000 to complete and will be a big uplift for this part of the local Bourne traffic network.”

DATES AND TIMES

The works will begin on Thursday November 9 and have a planned end date of Wednesday December 20, subject to suitable weather. Working hours on site will be from 07.30 to 17.00. There will be no through-access outside working hours.

TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT

A road closure and diversion route will be in place throughout the duration of the works. There will also be a ‘no parking’ restriction during the closure to enable the resurfacing work to be completed.

DIVERSION ROUTE

The diversion route will be via Cherry Holt Road, A151, Counter Drain Drove and vice versa.

LOCATION OF WORKS

The works will be carried out on the South Fen Road, Bourne from the allotments to the speed limit change just past the Frontier factory.

Karen Cassar added: "We will do everything possible to keep the disruption to as short a timescale as possible whilst we carry out these significant improvements to the road.

“I would like to thank everyone effected by these works for their patience and understanding whilst we carry out the scheduled programme.”
