Sleaford Linking into Holdingham


So the year is under way and ideas for shaping Sleaford and Holdinghams future will carry on regardless. 

Watch out for further ramifications to the development of the Care Centre; ideas for offsetting Network Rails desire to close both level crossings (Southgate and King Edward Street).

Even more look out for suggestions on the rate of change required to implement the Sleaford Masterplan. Housing numbers seem to keep escalating and talk of putting a railway Station near Homebase  has been mooted in the local news.

One key requirement will be to ensure traffic flows into Schools, shops and work are not restricted by bad planning and not coming to terms with likely traffic flows. That is where we went wrong in the first place: trying to put our head in the sand about the number of vehicles on our roads. Essentially if Sleaford is to fill the places at its Academies then access to them will be vital.

Links to the A15 maybe!! Watch for that rumpus. The A17 is getting overloaded and only major investment will sort thaat out in the long run.
