Drivers warned of Roadworks on A17

Motorists are being warned that there will be roadworks on the A17 from Monday.

A package of carriageway replacement work will be carried out in two phases until Saturday, March 24, subject to weather conditions.

The first phase will take place between Hurn Road and Lowgate in Fleet Hargate and will run until Friday, March 9.

The second phase will take place north of the Lutton Garnsgate junction, to the south of Delph Road from Monday, March 12 to Saturday, March 24.

For both sets of work there will be temporary traffic lights from 7pm to 6am Monday to Friday, except the last five evenings in Fleet Hargate which will have a road closure.

There will be a signed diversion throughout the works.

“The improvements we’ll be carrying out on Washway Road from February to March are essential to keeping the A17 through Fleet Hargate and Long Sutton up-and-running,” said Coun Richard Davies, executive member for highways at Lincolnshire County Council.

During the Long Sutton works, Delph Road and Lutton Garnsgate will close during working hours.

There will be a diversion in place during that second phase.
