'Inevitable' disruption ahead as Boston road closures planned as part of £5.7m A16 works

The project is now more than halfway complete

Works to improve the A16 Marsh Lane roundabout in Boston and active travel in the surrounding area are now more than halfway complete - but upcoming road closures will cause some disruption for motorists. The project, which began in May, has seen over 1,000 tonnes of road-building material used for carriageway widening and nearly 200 tonnes used for a new shared footway and cycleway.

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways, said: "Our first two ‘Levelling Up’ projects are continuing to go well. In fact, we're now past the midway point for both.

"Since starting in May, the team has widened the western side of the roundabout at its approach from the A16 heading northbound. We’ve also laid nearly two football pitch-lengths worth of new kerbing and installed twenty new street lighting columns.

"On top of that, we’ve finished upgrading the traffic signals at the Marsh Lane / Wyberton Low Road junction so all legs are now Toucan crossings. This was a big piece of work that meant installing nine new signal heads with overhead detection, tactile paving and fifteen new underground chambers.

"We've also had BT Openreach on-site to divert over a quarter-mile of their underground services so they fit with the new design of the roundabout and road layout."

Workers are now starting to resurface the roads, which means closures will be put in place at certain times. Cllr Davies added: "Now that we've passed the halfway point, one of the next steps is to lay new road surfacing, which will involve some overnight closures. However, the details of these are still being finalised, but we will share the dates and times as soon as they're confirmed.

"In addition to that, the team will also be focusing on widening the eastern side of the roundabout and continuing improvements to active travel links near Wyberton Low Road. There will inevitably be some disruption during this second half of the projects, mainly due to the need to close most of the roads affected for final surfacing.

"This comes part and parcel of major road improvements so we hope everyone will continue bearing with us." Below is an overview of upcoming traffic management associated with the two projects:

Upcoming traffic management

• Road closure on Wyberton Low Road from Tuesday, August 8 for four evenings, 7pm to 7am
• Temporary traffic signals on Marsh Lane to carry out trial holes to locate the gas pipe and water main from Monday, August 14 for four evenings, 7pm to 7am
• Temporary traffic signals and convoy working on Marsh Lane (for road resurfacing) 7pm to 7am during weekend dates in September to October from Saturday evening to Monday morning (exact dates to be confirmed)
• Road closure on A16 from mid-October to mid-November (for final road resurfacing)
• Southbound closure on London Road for footway widening from mid-November to mid-December,

In addition to the upcoming traffic management above, current/ongoing traffic management includes lane closures and temporary traffic signals as needed on the A16, Marsh Lane and Wyberton Low Road.

A driver dies after crashing into a security barrier around the white house complex, authorities say.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A driver died after a vehicle crashed into an outer perimeter gate of the White House complex, and the incident late Saturday was being investigated as a traffic crash, police said. President Joe Biden was spending the weekend in Delaware, and the Secret Service said there was no threat to the White House.

The male driver, who was not immediately identified, was found dead in the vehicle following the crash shortly before 10:30 p.m., according to a Secret Service statement.

The Metropolitan Police Department said the vehicle crashed into a security barrier at the intersection of 15th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW. Police were called to the scene at 10:46 p.m. and said one adult male was pronounced dead from the crash into a security barrier around the complex.

The Secret Service said security protocols were put in place and that there was no threat to the White House. The Secret Service and police will continue to investigate.
