The North Lincolnshire Lakes scheme located in Scunthorpe, was awarded to VBA to increase flood defence protection and improve existing barriers to defend homes in the Isle of Axholme areas. The works are necessary in order to reduce flood risk to the wider Lincolnshire Lakes development scheme, local businesses and communities.

The work on site will include reinforcing the existing earth embankment and the installation of 3.5km of sheet piles along the east bank of the river Trent from the M180 to Keadby Bridge.
