Santa's sleigh run to visit Stamford, Ryhall, Ketton and King's Cliffe
A council keen to keep on Santa’s nice list is reopening a road for the big man’s tour of Stamford.
Father Christmas will soon be on his sleigh visiting streets in the town and surrounding villages.
While Santa is known for his magical travelling talents, Lincolnshire County Council is making his journey smoother by reopening Edinburgh Road on the night he is passing through.
A £175,000 project to replace the footpath and create new crossing points between Charles Road and Green Lane is currently underway.
Work isn’t expected to finish until January but Santa, with his team of helpers from the charitable group Stamford Kiwanis, has been given the go-ahead to travel through.
Santa’s busy schedule, from 5pm on weekends and 5.30pm on weekdays, is as follows:
