A series of road closures will be in place in Heacham over the next few months.

Norfolk County Council will be carrying out work on the left-hand turn from the Lynn Road to the A149.

It is currently difficult for large and long vehicles to navigate and the council believes the changes will improve traffic flow in the area.

The road and kerb line will be widened and junction will be resurfaced throughout the project which is expected to run from Monday, September 16 until Thursday, October 24.

Lynn Road will be closed from the Norfolk Lavender overflow car park to the A149 junction will be closed for the duration of the project.

The official diversion route will be via Lynn Road, Hunstanton Road, Butterfield Meadow and the A149 but alternative local routes will also be available.

The B1454 is to be closed overnight (7pm to 6am) between Wednesday, October 9 and Friday, October 18 October for resurfacing.

Lynx Bus routes 34/35/36, 35, 408 and 414 will be affected during this period and will not be able to serve the Nourse Drive, Ringstead Road and Norfolk Lavender stops in Heacham.

Buses will be diverted via Hunstanton Road and the nearest alternative bus stops will be near the Tesco Express. 

The work is part of the council's broader Bus Service Improvement Plan which secured funding from the Department for Transport.
