History
In 1922, the A1031 followed the coast, going from Grimsby to Cleethorpes, and ended on the A1030 (now A46). It was later expanded south, along the B1198 up to the A1098. It was then extended all the way to Mablethorpe during the 1950s. After the construction of the A180 in 1983, the northern section of the A1031 was reclassified, but it was not upgraded, making it the only unimproved section of A180.[1]
