Description
Saxilby visitor mooring streetlights will be turned off between 10th July and 30th September.
Third party contractors, West Lindsey District Council, are working on Saxilby Moorings Footbridge 3A during this time.
The streetlight power supply is via the footbridge. The cable will be disconnected while the bridge is taken away for refurbishment, to be reconnected when the bridge is returned.
Visitor mooring customers should be aware of reduced night time visibility along the mooring paths and take suitable mitigation measures.

There is alternative access to the visitor moorings available from the A57 Gainsborough Road via a flight of steps. However, ramped access to the moorings is unfortunately not available while this work is taking place.
Local Authority Information notices have been supplied at the bridge location and are attached to the temporary fencing.
