A big deal for Cleethorpes
Northern Lincolnshire will receive £38.1m in Levelling Up Funds to transform the fortunes of two towns.
Demand for the cash was oversubscribed. Analysis in September by the Local Government Chronicle found that 83 bids from 44 councils sought £1.6bn alone. “Mass improvements” to the town’s railway station are also part of the successful bid. These will include new cycle parking, an extension of the car park and bus shelter upgrades.
“This is absolutely brilliant news for the resort, which is fast becoming the jewel in the crown along the east coast of our country and is attracting growing numbers of people who want to not only visit here, but live here too,” said Cllr Philip Jackson, the council leader. “Over the last few years, we have seen the start of the Cleethorpes transformation, with the Coastal Communities Fund work and that around the heritage properties on Alexandra Road.
