Lincolnshire County Council are planning to replace the street lighting in various streets in the Lower High Street and Sincil Banks areas of Lincoln. The existing concrete columns have been identified as being in poor condition and will be replaced with new galvanized steel columns with energy efficient LED lanterns.
The works are expected to be carried out early in 2021 and every effort will be made to keep disruption to an absolute minimum. There will, however, be a temporary need to keep streets clear of parked vehicles in order for the contractor to gain access and carry out the works in a safe manner.
Lincolnshire County Council would greatly appreciate the cooperation of residents and visitors who normally park their vehicles in the area to observe the temporary restrictions and find alternative parking. Further details of the parking restrictions will be provided locally nearer to the works start date.
A list of the affected streets with dates of the proposed works is detailed below:
Spencer Street and Featherby Place - week commencing Monday 4th January
Little Bargate Street - week commencing Monday 11th January
Gibbeson Street - week commencing Monday 18th January
