A new era: More money, more say and better results for Greater Lincolnshire

The Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority (CCA) is a newly established body which has taken on devolved powers from the government to shape a better future for Lincolnshire and its residents.

It is responsible for driving economic growth, improving roads, infrastructure and transport, together with creating new job opportunities for residents and businesses. By bringing decision-making closer to local people, the authority will ensure that funding and resources are used effectively to deliver real benefits.

The official creation of the combined county authority marks a significant milestone, unlocking new opportunities to shape the region’s future and ensure Lincolnshire residents’ priorities are put first, with decisions made locally to benefit local communities.

Bringing together leadership from across Greater Lincolnshire, the new authority will work collaboratively to invest in infrastructure, support local businesses, and promote sustainable growth while protecting the area’s rich heritage and natural environment.

With devolved powers and a focus on delivering results, every penny of investment will be used to maximise benefits for residents and businesses, enhancing already strong foundations for long-term success.

Through the securing of greater control over funding and decision-making, Lincolnshire will be better-positioned to build a stronger, more prosperous future - one where communities thrive, businesses flourish, and residents have access to the opportunities they deserve.
