Drivers could face delays this month as a road that connects with the NDR is to shut for roadworks.

Plumstead Road will be shut on Friday, June 23, between 9.30am and 3pm for rejuvenation works.

It will be shut from Broad Lane to the level crossing, including Thorpe End Drive from the A1270 Broadland Northway roundabout.

The work will see a road rejuvenator applied, which is sprayed onto the road surface and requires time to soak into the top layer, according to Norfolk County Council.

It is the first time this technology has been used at the site, which is meant to help the road surface last for a number of years longer than without it.

A diversion route will be in place during the roadworks, utilising the NDR, Salhouse Road, Honeycombe Road and Woodside Road. 

Norfolk County Council contractors are carrying out the work, which is expected to cost £26,545.
