Work starts today (Monday 12 October) to resurface four roads in Bottesford as North Lincolnshire Council continues its programme of investment in improving roads across the area.
Bottesford Lane, Holme Hall Avenue, Charterhouse Drive and Audern Road will all benefit from resurfacing, with work expected to take around four weeks.
The improvements will be carried out in phases to minimise disruption for residents, businesses and motorists, with temporary road closures and diversions in place where necessary.
Cllr Rob Waltham, leader, North Lincolnshire Council, said: “We’re getting on with improving roads right across North Lincolnshire, and these four roads in Bottesford are the latest to benefit.
“We’ve already repaired more than 18,000 potholes and delivered improvements in more than 30 towns and villages, but we know there’s more to do.
“People want better roads, and that’s exactly what we’re delivering. There will inevitably be some disruption while the work takes place, but the result will be smoother, safer roads for everyone who uses them.”
The latest investment follows a major programme of highway improvements across North Lincolnshire, with more than 18,000 potholes repaired and resurfacing work carried out in more than 30 towns and villages.
Cllr John Davison, cabinet member for Ashby, Bottesford and Scunthorpe, said: “I’ve been pushing to get these roads resurfaced for quite some time, so I’m delighted the work is finally getting underway.
“Some of the road surfaces have deteriorated significantly, and while repairs have been carried out previously, what they really need is proper resurfacing.
“I use these roads regularly myself, so I know the work will cause some inconvenience. I’d like to thank residents and motorists for their patience, but I’m confident the improvements will be well worth it.”
The Bottesford works form part of the council’s continuing investment in maintaining and improving the local highway network, with resurfacing schemes being delivered across North Lincolnshire.
