Anyone with questions about the introduction of a new 5G mast in a city suburb is being given a chance to have their say on things prior to an upcoming proposal.
The plan would be for a 17m pole to be built in St Clements Hill on the corner of Wall Road and at the end of Sewell Park Academy's field - which would give off 3G, 4G and eventually 5G signals.
It comes after an application was made for masts to be built in Wilberforce Road, in West Earlham.
The masts are to improve internet speeds for people around the outskirts of the city centre.
Julie Brociek-Coulton, Labour party councillor for Sewell Ward, wants to give folk in the surrounding area a chance to pose any questions to the contractors, Clarke Telecoms, and to say what they may think about the proposed mast.
She said: "I'm happy to be able to let residents in Sewell know of this proposed mast and its consultation.
"I've been in contact with the company who have said that if residents want to send me their questions it will answer them.
"So please if anyone has anything they wish me to ask, send them to me."

Leaflets, which will be sent out to people living nearby in the coming days, will include a form to say whether they approve or not of the application going ahead and a section for any questions to be put forward by councillor Brociek-Coulton.
On health concerns around 5G masts, the government's advice is: "It is possible that there may be a small increase in overall exposure to radio waves when 5G is added to an existing network or in a new area.
"However, the overall exposure is expected to remain low relative to guidelines and, as such, there should be no consequences for public health."
