Brigg motorists should be aware that the A18 between Wrawby and Barnetby will be closed for spells this Saturday and Sunday while North Lincolnshire Council undertakes essential maintenance work to the bridge over the Barnetby-Elsham-Scunthorpe railway line. Diversions will be in place.
The planned closures will be from 11pm on Saturday, May 7 to 10am Sunday, May 8.
The same will apply on the weekends of 14/15 May, 21/22 May, 4/5 June, 11/12 June, 18/19 June, 25/26 June, 2/3 July and 16/17 July.
A North Lincolnshire Council spokesman told Brigg Blog: "The waterproof membrane on the bridge deck was replaced last year during phase one of the works carried out at the railway bridge.
"Phase two of the work, due to start this weekend, involves repairs to the bridge's structural brickwork. As a result the road will be closed over a number of Saturday nights.
"These repairs could not be carried out when the road was closed last year as the workers need access to the bridge surface, which was being worked on."
