In 2015 Lincolnshire County Council identified a need to have formal evacuation routes from communities at risk of flood. Although controversial at the time because of the cost and it being half a century since any flooding occurred in the county, the work went ahead and several towns now have these signs.

The idea is to stop people fleeing sea or river flooding ending up on impassable roads. The county plans include evacuation centres in which the people can be temporarily housed.

The signage exists on the following routes:
From Saltfleet to the B1200 then to the A16 / A631
From Mablethorpe to the A1104, the A157
From Sutton on Sea via the A1111 to the A1104
From Ingoldmells via B1449 then the A1104
From Ingoldmells via Addlethorpe, through Orby to the A1028 then joining the A16
From Skegness via the A158
From Boston following the A16 northbound or southbound
From Boston via the B1183 to Revesby then the A155 towards Coningsby
From Boston via the A52, A1121 then to the A17
From Sutterton / Fosdyke via the A17, the B1181 then the A52 towards Grantham
From Spalding via the A16 to the A1175 toward the Deepings
From Spalding via the A151 towards Bourne
From Long Sutton / Sutton Bridge via the A17 and the A151
