Norfolk's infamous "bottleneck village" is set for more traffic woes, with roadworks and closures beginning next week.
Coltishall's tight corners and narrow roads are a hotspot for traffic flare-ups.
The roadworks will begin in Station Road at 8am on October 28 as UK Power Networks work begins on repairs and maintenance work.
The work will see a new electrical connection run along the road between the Westbourne Road and Great Hautbois Road junctions.
The closure will last until 6pm on November 1 with emergency access will be maintained at all times.
An official 30-mile diversion route has been put in place with One Network advising drivers the detour will take around an hour.
It will take drivers up the B1150 to North Walsham before going west to Alysham, down the A140 to Hainford before heading back into Coltishall.
