GIVE THE A18 IN CENTRAL BRIGG A MISS IF YOU CAN

We are experiencing driving delays on the A18 in Brigg today so avoid it if you can use estate roads to find your way across town (eg Woodbine Avenue, Glebe Road, Newlands estate). They are digging up the road near the main traffic lights on Barnard Avenue where it joins Old Courts Road and Wesley Road. Temporary traffic lights are in place. About 11.45am today traffic was queuing as far as the Monument and to the Atherton Way roundabout. We have no official information about the reason for this repair work but wonder whether it might be to do with a poorly drained area of road near the Methodist Church car park.
