Village roads set to be resurfaced

Road surfacing work is due to start on some roads in the area.

Lincolnshire County Council has announced its timetable for works for the next few weeks.

The south portion of Winslow Gate, Windmill Lane and Siltside in Gosberton Risegate, New Road in Holbeach St Marks and Star Lane in Holbeach Bank will be treated on Tuesday, May 18.

Coun Richard Davies, executive member for highways at Lincolnshire County Council, said: “Surface dressing is a key part of the routine maintenance of our roads.

“It extends their life without the lengthy disruption caused by completely digging the road up and resurfacing.

“Redressed roads are more skid-resistant and have a waterproof seal, which helps prevent potholes forming.

“Crucially, surface dressing helps us keep roads in good condition for longer so that we can focus our resources on fully resurfacing the roads that need it most.”
