52.896107043262845, -0.5932159055689131 (google maps coordinates) as you’re coming out of this roundabout there are signs (for now partially wrapped in black duct tape only visible ,except for access’’ on the bottom)
How are we supposed to use the A52 from then on, going east-to-west? Go to the A1 via the B roads and then back out on the a52 after Grantham?
Presumably they are there for when the bypass finally opens. I.e you’ll use that and come out on the A1 then up 2 junctions and back onto the A52. Sooner its open the better

The bridge on the A52 on the way in at 14ft 3in was one of the lowest out of them all.
Go down the A1 south, get off at the A607 junction which is the next one down and then if you’re 15ft high or less continue on the A607 to meet up with the A52 or if you’re too high turn left at the roundabout at the end of the slip road, up to the T junction, turn left, up to next junction then turn right onto Dysart Road. That’ll make a lot of people happy as you go through a housing estate but that’s the signposted way to Dysart Ind Est. Go under the bridge and it puts you on the one way system in the middle of Grantham for the A52.
At worst it’s only going to add a couple of minutes but in rush hour it may actually save you time.

Connor, I’m summising that they have been put up for when the Grantham Southern Bypass has been completed, as that roundabout has been moved slightly over the past months. I would also guess that some may appear on the A52 to the west of Grantham at some point in the future, along with other routes into Grantham.

Ah, so this is where the unfinished road going to lead to? (the exit just before the one for Grantham that’s coned off now)
Connor, I’m not worried about height but having to go down these B-lanes to the A-1 around 5 a.m. with a roaring fridge trailer as you’re pointing out, through the housing blocks although to be fair there’s plenty of homes right along the A52 itself as you’re driving through Grantham
If you go under that 15 foot 3 bridge on the a607,make sure you keep to the centre.One of our drivers whacked it even though he was under 15,3 because he never kept it in the centre
