Future
The initial aim of reopening the line from Louth to Grimsby is no longer feasible in the short to medium term, as part of the section between Grimsby and New Waltham was designated by Humberside County Council for the building/construction of the A16 Peaks Parkway Road, which was completed in 1998. These roadworks made any future extension to Grimsby impossible without major financial investment.
However, it is hoped eventually to reconstruct the entire sole-surviving 8 miles of track bed between a new site at Louth and Holton-le-clay.
