rdf:langString The A16 road is a principal road of Lincolnshire in the East Midlands region of England, connecting the port of Grimsby and Peterborough, where it meets the A1175, A47 & A1139 then on to the A1 and the A605; the latter, in turn, giving a through route to Northampton and the west, and south west of England. Its length is 78 miles (126 km). The road was "de-trunked", with responsibility largely returned to Lincolnshire County Council from the Highways Agency in 2002. From north to south its route is: * Grimsby * Utterby * Louth (now bypassed) * Burwell * Walmsgate * Dalby * Partney (now bypassed) * Spilsby * East Keal * Keal Cotes * Stickford (now bypassed) * Stickney * Sibsey * Hilldyke * Boston * Wyberton (now bypassed) * Kirton (now bypassed) * Surfleet (now bypassed) * Pinchbeck (now bypassed) * Spalding (now bypassed) * Crowland (bypassed) * Peterborough The road is a Primary Route for its entire length.Most of the A16 is single carriageway. The 1-mile (1.6 km) £1.2 million Ludborough Bypass opened in November 1992. The 1-mile (1.6 km) Fotherby Bypass opened in 2004. The 3-mile (4.8 km) £6.6 million Louth Bypass opened in August 1991. The 1-mile (1.6 km) Partney Bypass opened in August 2005. From West Keal to Boston, the road is very flat. The 1-mile (1.6 km) £1 million Stickford Bypass opened in October 1992. The £1.4 million Boston Inner Relief Road opened in early 1978. There are demands for Boston to be bypassed. The 6-mile (9.7 km) £11.5 million Boston-Algarkirk Diversion opened in October 1991. The 11-mile (18 km) £23 million Spalding-Sutterton Improvement (the Spalding Bypass) opened in August 1995.
