Bridge works nearly completed

Work has concentrated on the new bridge, the A1042 Oaks lane roundabout and the new signalised junction. The new bridge is taking shape with the concrete deck complete, both of the edge beams cast and the posts for the parapet railings being installed. Overnight road closures of the A47 will enable the removal of the temporary formwork and completion of the paintwork.

The traffic management of the A47 to the east of the new bridge will be removed shortly and the eastbound ‘on slip’ will come into full operation.
