Bus passengers are to face months of disruption due to roadworks at a busy junction.
Boundary Road, where Mile Cross meets Hellesdon, is shutting for eight weeks for the major project expected to cost £800,000 in total from July 10.
All the traffic lights are set to be replaced at the junction and the road is being resurfaced on the ring road at the junction.

The A140 Aylsham Road and Cromer Road, and Reepham Road, will be closed at the Boundary junction for a number of weeks and signed diversion routes will be in place.
The ring road at Boundary Road and Mile Cross Lane will remain open throughout the majority of the works.
Resurfacing work which requires road closures will be carried out at night to reduce the impact on drivers and businesses.
Work will be carried out in phases between July 10 to September 1, after it was postponed last year amid complaints from business owners, drivers and councillors due to the volume of roadworks in the area.
Norfolk County Council has confirmed the work will cost £500,000 for carriageway resurfacing and £300,000 for the replacement of traffic signals.
