City of Lincoln Council is pleased to report that construction on the Charterholme Eastern Access is progressing well and remains on schedule.
This major infrastructure project includes the construction of a new vehicular bridge over the railway and significant road improvements along Tritton Road.
Nighttime Works will run from January 6 to January 10, 2025.
As part of the next phase, contractors John Graham Construction (JGC) will undertake critical drainage works on Tritton Road.
These works will be carried out over five nights, beginning on Monday 6 January 2025, and concluding on Friday 10 January 2025, between 8pm and 6am.
To ensure public safety and facilitate the works, Tritton Road will be closed to traffic between the Skellingthorpe Road and Dixon Street junctions during these hours.
A diversion route will be in place, directing northbound traffic via the Lincoln Bypass (A46) and southbound traffic via Dixon Street and Boultham Park Road.
Advance warning signs were installed on December 16, 2024, to notify road users of the upcoming closures and diversions.
Each night will involve drainage and ducting road crossings, followed by surface reinstatement works.
On the final night, a new traffic management layout will be implemented, including a Temporary Traffic Regulation Order (TTRO) reducing the speed limit from 40mph to 30mph through the works.
The left-hand lane at Nosey Parker (Tritton Road into Valentine Road) will also be closed. Left turns into Valentine Way will still be permitted but this will be from the central lane rather than the usual left-hand lane.
City of Lincoln Council recognises the inconvenience road closures may cause and has scheduled this work overnight to minimise disruption to residents and road users.
These improvements are vital to the successful delivery of the Charterholme project and the continued development of Lincoln’s infrastructure.
