Lidl Kettering Road 

Link was appointed by Lidl for their new retail food store along Kettering Road, Northampton, with an associated car parking area. Link was tasked with designing, managing, and securing Section 278 approval for the highway access works, including a ghost right turn and road widening.

This project marks a significant milestone for Link Engineering, as it achieved the fastest technical approval in its history. The entire process, from initial instruction to securing approval, took just 44 days.

The timeline was achieved through best-in-class collaboration between both the client, Lidl, and the Local Highway Authority, West Northamptonshire Council, alongside Link’s detailed expertise in the Section 278 process.
