Our neighbouring market town Sleaford was 1 of the 79 projects that was part of the Sustrans Connect2 bid for National Lottery funding over 2 years ago. Nationally the projects are now starting to take shape which now includes the Sleaford project with the first of the link paths starting to take shape.
When completed the Sleaford project will allow local resident walkers and cyclists from the north side of the A17 cross the A17 safely with the use of a local bridge crossing which for a number off years has been used only by a local landowner. The bridge will be upgraded to allow walkers and cyclists to across with ease and will have all weather links leading up to it on both sides of the A17.
The Sleaford project has received a lot of support within and around the neighbouring communities, this also extends to the local press which reported recently the news of the start of work on the project, the article can be read here.
In the meantime a few photos of the current work, bridge crossing and a short video to show what the current situation is like crossing the A17.
