Boston tourist and travel information

Boston Travel Information
	Boston is situated near the south-east coast of Lincolnshire, where the River Witham becomes the Haven on its short journey to The Wash. Apart from the A1, which passes through Lincolnshire on its way north, there are very few dual carriageways to be found in the county. However, to compensate this, there are several A roads and traffic is generally light in the area.	TRAVELLINE at www.traveline.info
