Works to improve the A16 in Toynton All Saints will start in late April.
Karen Cassar, assistant director for highways, said: “Immediately following on from our ongoing A16 reconstruction works in Sibsey, we’ll be heading north to Toynton All Saints to rebuild another failing section of the A16.
“This two-mile stretch of road will take up to a month to reconstruct, with up to 1,500 tonnes of road building materials set to be used.
“Please note that, as of now, we expect to start these works during week commencing 28th April. However, the actual day we break ground is dependent on when our resurfacing works in Sibsey are finished. This is because the same contractor and construction crew will be working on these improvements in Toynton All Saints, so any delays due to weather or other issues in Sibsey could affect when we start here.
“Once a firm start date is confirmed, this will be posted on roadside signage so people are aware in advance.”
