A NEW 'cycle superhighway' is to be constructed between Grimsby and Immingham.
The announcement came today from North East Lincolnshire Council after it emerged that a £2.2-million grant had been forthcoming from the Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership.
The off-road cycleway will give cyclists a safe route along the South Humber Bank for work, education and recreation.
The project is worth a total of £2.6-millon, with £400,000 to be contributed by the council and the private sector
The new cycleway will be constructed in three locations:
* Part of Hobson Way, Immingham
* A180 Westgate roundabout to Lockhill roundabout, Grimsby
* A1173 Immingham to Stallingborough
Work is planned to start in March on the Hobson Way and A180 Westgate to Lockhill roundabout sections.
As part of the planning of the project, residents and businesses who may be affected by the works are being contacted and asked to complete a survey with any feedback they have regarding the delivery of the scheme.
There are two surveys for each location and they can be found here:
* Hobson Way cycleway survey: https://hobsonway.questionpro.eu
* A180 Westgate to Lockhill roundabout cycleway survey: https://westgatecyclehighway.questionpro.eu
Residents have until Thursday February 11 on both surveys to provide any feedback.
The third location on the A1173 will start later in the year and a survey will be created regarding this part of the project at a later date.
