The closure, which is set to last until midday, will be in place from the St Stephens roundabout heading northwest to the second entrance to The Crescent.

The work will involve a road rejuvenator being sprayed on to the road that will soak into the top layer to preserve the asphalt for several more years.

The resurfacing works, carried out by Norfolk County Council, started on Tuesday and are expected to be completed by 6am on June 20.

A spokesman for Norfolk County Council said: "The road requires resurfacing due to extensive areas of heat damage from the previous summer.

Tombland in Norwich

The Tombland Road and adjacent side roads will be closed on June 23 from 6.00am to 11.00am.

This closure will be in place from Palace Street to Prince of Wales Road.

The work - which will cost £30,935 - is expected to lengthen the life of the asphalt road surface by multiple years through early intervention.

Work started on Sunday, to resurface a section of the A10 in West Winch, between Gravehill Lane to the Stoke Ferry Road roundabout.

The work, which is weather dependant, will be carried out overnight in phases.
