When is a Road not Closed – when it’s OPEN?

Road not Closed!
  • Official notices: Roadwork alerts have been issued for Stubton and surrounding areas, with closures and diversions listed on government transport feeds.
  • Local reality: Residents have observed that despite being marked as closed, Fenton Road remains accessible. Anglian Water and Lincolnshire Drainage Company have been carrying out works nearby, and ComTelecom has been working on cabling between Fenton and Stubton.
  • Conditions: The road is muddy due to heavy plant machinery and seasonal weather, but it is not physically blocked. Rain is expected to help clear mud from the surface, or even dry weather could help dissipate the mud.

Practical Takeaway

  • You can use Fenton Road right now, but be prepared for mud and possible utility vehicles along the route.
  • Official traffic feeds may still show it as closed, so if you’re relying on sat-nav or route planners, they might divert you unnecessarily.
  • For the most accurate updates, on-the-ground checks are more reliable than national traffic databases in this case.
