New images show the progress being made on a major reconstruction scheme on the A11 as it reaches the halfway point.
The road surface of the A11 between Spooner Row and the Tuttles Lane Interchange, which was laid in the 1990s, is being renewed as part of a £60m project.
So far, 5.3 miles of road has been replaced on the northbound carriageway since the work started on April 20 last year.
The scheme has seen 15 Olympic-sized swimming pools worth of concrete removed from the road and 72,000 tonnes of new asphalt road surface laid.
More than six miles of new drainage has been installed and 3.7 miles of new safety barriers have been put in place.
Andy Jobling, National Highways programme lead, said: "We are thrilled to complete the reconstruction of the northbound carriageway, which will provide a much smoother and quieter ride for tens of thousands of drivers every day.
"We know that living, working or travelling in and around a major construction scheme isn’t easy, so we’re extremely grateful for the patience and understanding which has been shown."
National Highways will now switch its attention to the southbound carriageway, removing the old concrete road surface before rebuilding the road.
The scheme will continue to use a contraflow system to keep the A11 open during the reconstruction of the road, but it will be relocated to the northbound carriageway on Thursday, January 12.
The carriageway will still be reduced to one lane in both directions while work is ongoing with a speed limit of 40mph.
