Significant renovation plans for Lincoln’s famed Bailgate have been revealed, with repaving the historic street at the heart of the project. The existing paving stones, which have become an integral part of this much-loved area of the city, are reportedly showing the strain of time and may continue to degrade if no measures are taken. The renovation project seeks to guarantee that the street remains serviceable for the people living in the area and tourists, thus retaining its allure and practicality for many more years. Moreover, this refurbishment will not just safeguard the historical character of Bailgate, but it will also boost local businesses and tourism, by creating an environment that is both safer and more visually appealing.
