Average speed cameras to be installed on the A52
BBCPlans to introduce average speed cameras on the A52 between Skegness and Wainfleet have been approved.
The news of the project follows an "extensive investigation" by Lincolnshire County Council and the Lincolnshire Road Safety Partnership.
There will also be work to improve road markings and signs.
Michael Cheyne, the council's executive member for highways, said: "Every fatal and serious accident is a tragedy, and we want to do everything we can to make the roads as safe as possible."
A 2.5-mile stretch of the A52 will be covered by the average speed enforcement system. The BBC understands the speed limit for the road is yet to be decided.
As part of the work, the council said it would install solar-powered road studs as well as repairing and replacing all vehicle-activated signs and reviewing other signs and markings.
The road safety partnership said the road had seen an "unacceptably high" number of fatal and serious crashes in recent years.
Work on the £300,000 scheme is expected to take place in the next year.
