The carriageway repairs will take place between property numbers 273 to 256 as Gorleston Road will be closed from 7pm tomorrow evening (Wednesday, September 30) to 5am on Thursday, October 1.

With "delays likely" according to the One.Network roadworks map, a Suffolk Highways spokesman said: "The road will only need to be closed for a time during the advertised hours.

"Access will be maintained for residents and businesses throughout."

The overnight works will see drivers facing a diversion.

For the temporary closure on part of Gorleston Road, traffic will be diverted via the B1074, A12, A146 and vice versa.

The Suffolk Highways spokesman added: "Thank you for your patience during this time."
