There are multiple roadworks currently taking place in Norfolk with the A47 works between Thickthorn and Trowse proving particularly disruptive for motorists.

With more people now on the roads following the coronavirus lockdowns, delays have become more likely.

These are some of the key works which you need to be aware of within the county if you are travelling on the roads:

Suffolk Road, Great Yarmouth

Access from William Adams Way onto Suffolk Road is temporarily closed until November 29, 2022.

The closure is in force 24 hours a day.

A diversion is in place south along William Adams Way, left onto Southtown Road, left onto Boundary Road and
then access onto Suffolk Road.

Attleborough Road, Great Ellingham

Work has begun to construct a new roundabout at the B1077 Attleborough Road, Hingham Road crossroads in Great Ellingham.

The roundabout is being built as a planning condition related to two developments nearby and is designed to make the junction easier to navigate.

The work, which will be carried out in stages to help minimise disruption, is expected to take 14 weeks to complete.

Hingham Road has been closed from the junction with Attleborough Road northwards to Bow Street for seven weeks in order to construct the northern half of the new roundabout.

Essential work is due to take place around July 5 to resurface the worn-out pavement and install new kerbs on the southern side of Plumstead Road.

The works, which will cost £120,000, are expected to take seven weeks to complete, weather permitting.

There will be four-way temporary traffic lights on the junction between Plumstead Road, Green Lane North and Heath Road, and three-way temporary traffic lights between the mini roundabout from Plumstead Road to Broadland drive. There will also be two-way lights on Plumstead Road.

The roadworks are expected to be completed by June 29.

As well as this, they are widening some of the pavements and putting in place dropped kerbs and tactile paving at the crossing points.
