    “so why the need for Boutham Park Road North to be closed?! Boultham Avenue is a ridiculous layout and difficult to pass other vehicles (especially those with drivers possessing no spatial awareness) at the best of times, not helped by staff from "Lincoln Security" parking on the double yellows at the eastern end. If the closure is to prevent people cutting through to avoid the inevitable traffic on Dixon Street, surely it would make more sense to close access at the Boultham Park Road/Dixon Street junction? Yet another decision made with no regard for residents!”
