en.Wedoany.com Reported - National Highways has planned a £2.7 million investment to improve safety and travel smoothness on the A1 road between Foston and Little Ponton in Lincolnshire. The project commenced on June 11 and is expected to be completed by the end of October.

The works will involve resurfacing sections of carriageways, slip roads, and lay-bys, renewing road markings and reflective road studs, and laying high-friction surfacing on both northbound and southbound carriageways. The project also includes partial footway resurfacing, replacement of kerbs within lay-bys, renewal of damaged signposts, and vegetation clearance, including the removal of self-seeded trees in some areas of the central reservation.

Kyle Morley, Project Manager at National Highways, stated that this investment will significantly improve the condition of this section of road, providing drivers with a safer and smoother journey. Through careful planning, the project combines two separate works into a single closure period, reducing future road closures and minimizing disruption to road users and the local community.

The works are scheduled from 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM, Monday to Friday. Full carriageway and slip road closures will be required during construction, with clearly signed diversion routes in place, and lay-bys will also be closed. National Highways advises road users to plan their journeys in advance and allow extra travel time.
