Work to repair a sewer which collapsed in two separate places could keep part of a Spalding main road closed until Monday, January 9.
The junction of Winsover Road and Bourne Road (A151) with Hawthorn Bank has been closed since before Christmas. That followed a closure next to the Eight Gates level crossing in Winsover Road.
An Anglian Water spokesman said: “Our teams have been on site at Winsover Road in Spalding repairing a sewer which has collapsed in two places.
“Repairs to the first section of pipe next to the level crossing have been completed. Repairs to the pipe further west on Winsover Road, at the junction of Hawthorn Bank, and are expected to take a number of weeks to complete due to the depth of the sewer underground.
“We hope to have the road back to normal by January 9.
“We’re sorry for any inconvenience this causes and would like to thank road users for their patience while this repair work is completed. Details about the ongoing repair work can be found on our website at www.anglianwater.co.uk/your-area”
