Traffic disruption warning over roadworks

The roadworks are set to last for six months from October

Residents are being warned of road closures in Skegness that will take place over the next six months.

A programme of work, including resurfacing roads and pavements, has already begun and is due to end in March.

Lincolnshire County Council warned there would be traffic disruption caused by 16 schemes and four sets of works being carried out by utility companies.

However, councillor Jimmy Brookes described it as a "major investment for Skegness".

"The works will cause some disruption but they're essential to improving our roads and paths," he said.

"I'd urge everyone to plan their journeys and if needed, speak to the crews on site who are there to help keep residents, businesses and visitors moving."
