We are working on behalf of Highways England to repair the road surface of the A47 near you. This work will include resurfacing various sections of the A47 westbound between Blofield and Whitlingham.
Subject to weather conditions, we plan to start work on Wednesday 14 December. We expect to complete the programme, which involves resurfacing in several locations, by Friday 23 December. Unless stated otherwise, all of the work detailed below will take place between 8pm and 6am and on weeknights only.
To keep road users at a safe distance from the works, we will close the A47 overnight between Wednesday 14 and Saturday 17 December westbound between the Cucumber Lane Roundabout and the A1042 Postwick Interchange while we are working.
