How schemes in Skegness get decided.
Two councils involved
East Lindsey District Council decides the planning application, but Lincolnshire County Council is the highway authority and gives the highways response. We deal with both, so the evidence suits the county’s standards as well as the local plan.
What shapes schemes in Skegness
A seaside resort at the end of the A158, with very large summer peaks in traffic and holiday parks along the coast. Traffic and parking peak in the summer, so when surveys are done and how seasonal flows are treated needs agreeing with the council early.
Roads, rail and buses
The main roads are the A158 and A52. There’s a railway station, so the walking and cycling route to it counts for a lot in any application.
