Road improvements North of Grantham set for late January

Works to rebuild sections of the B1202 near Boothby Graffoe will start next month.

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: “There is a nearly two-mile stretch of the B1202 in Boothby Graffoe that is getting close to the end of its life, so we’ll be rebuilding this section of road early next year before it gets any worse. 

“As part of these improvements, we’ll be using over 11,700 tonnes of tarmac and other road-building materials to carry this important project out.

“While on site, we’ll also be taking the opportunity to carry out other maintenance here, including some ironwork and kerb replacements.”
