Work on Spalding A16 junction to start on Monday

Improvement works to a Spalding junction due to last two weeks are to start on Monday (November 22).

The A16, A1175, B1173 (Cowbit Road) junction will be partially closed from 7pm to 6am as a result.

Diversions to be put in place include.

  • B1173/A1175 diversion route via B1173-B1172 (Spalding Common) / A1175, and vice versa
  • A16 North diversion route: A151 (Bourne Road, Dozen’s Bank, Spalding Road) / A15 (Bourne Road) / A1175, and vice versa
  • A16 South diversion route via A47 / A15 / A1175, and vice versa.

The work is part of £1.2m of improvement projects first announced in July.

Coun Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: “By the end of this massive improvement project, over 10,000 hours will have been spent on the works, with over 6,000 tonnes of new tarmac laid.

“These works will inevitably cause some disruption, but we’ll be doing everything we can to keep this to a minimum including carrying most of the works out overnight when there are fewer people on the roads. 

“We’ll also be maintaining access for residents and emergency services throughout the works when and where we can do so safely.

“I want to thank everyone in advance for bearing with us while we carry out these essential repairs.”
