A temporary road closure will be in place on the A52 between Bingham and Barrowby, from Monday, 26th October to Friday, 6th November. This is to enable drainage improvements and inspection safety barriers, as well as carrying out road sweeping, vegetation clearance and grass cutting.
Work will be carried out overnight, between 8pm and 6am.
To ensure the work is carried out safely, the Highways Agency will close the A52 between Bingham and Barrowby and work in phases:
26 October – 3 nights – Saxondale Roundabout to Grantham Road Whatton
29 October – 3 nights – Grantham Road Whatton to Grantham Road Bottesford
03 November – 4 nights – Grantham Road Bottesford to Barrowby
Laybys will be closed continuously from 1pm Monday 26 October to 6am Saturday 7 November between Bingham and Barrowby.
During closures, a fully signed diversion for both directions via the A46 and A1 in will be in place which has been agreed by the local authority. During this time, a telecom service will be in place for residents and businesses requiring access.
Where it is safe to do so, access for emergency vehicles will be maintained in emergency situations.
Every effort will be made to ensure the impact on the local community and travelling public is kept to a minimum. The Highways Agency will aim to work to the programme, however unforeseen circumstances or adverse weather conditions may mean changes.
