We will be carrying out highway improvements on Bakers Lane / Cottis Lane. Works will involve reconstructing the carriageway and realigning the footways.
Works are planned to commence on Monday 8 September 2025. In order to carry out activities in a safe manner, the work will be carried out in phases on Bakers Lane. The works are currently planned to be completed under two main phases with associated road closures.
Road closure and footway closure on Bakers Lane
During the closures, a signed diversion route will be in place using the following roads: St John’s Road, Coronation Hill and Lincolns Field.
We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation while we carry out these improvements.
Please note that the programme may be subject to change if affected by poor weather or if unexpected issues arise.
We aim to keep residents and businesses updated via this webpage and site signage. Information will also be shared with local parish councils.
