Construction

Once construction gets under way, we will work hard to minimise the 
impact on communities and the environment along the route. 

We will keep you informed of our 
progress and let you know what you can 
expect to see, and when.

Subject to planning approval, early 
construction work is expected to start 
in the spring of 2023 to winter of 2023. 
This will include creating access for 
the main construction works, building 
compounds and preparing sites along 
the route. 

Compounds

Main and satellite compounds will be 
set up at intervals along the route of 
the pipeline. Once the locations are 
confirmed they will be added to our 
interactive map. Main compounds will 
be created near to ‘A’ roads, where 
practicable, to reduce the impact on the 
local road network. Satellite compounds 
will be situated near A and B roads, where 
practicable. 

Areas around compounds will be 
monitored to ensure dirt is not 
deposited/transported onto surrounding 
roads. Vehicle wheels will be cleaned, and 
road sweepers will be used. 

Working hours

Our working hours will generally be 7am 
to 7pm (5.30pm in winter), Monday to 
Friday, with occasional weekend and 
night-time working. 

Roadworks

To ensure the safety of our teams and 
of road users, traffic management will 
be used at various times - including 
temporary two-way traffic lights, the use 
of roads cones to section off small areas 
of a carriageway and a limited number of 
temporary road closures.

We will work closely with Lincolnshire 
County Council’s highways department to 
minimise the impact. 

Once traffic management locations are 
confirmed, they will be added to our 
interactive map.
