Motorists on one of the region's busiest roads can expect delays this week as a 107-tonne lorry slowly moves through Norfolk.

Police are escorting the 81-foot-long vehicle holding cable drums from the A11 in Thetford to a site in Oulton in north Norfolk.

Officers will meet the 10-foot-wide unit on the A14 at the Cambridgeshire border.

It will then be moved along the A11, A134, A1122, A134, A10, Queen Elizabeth Way, A148 and B1149 before joining local roads to the site.

The convoy will be made up of two units and a self-escort and will hit roads at 9am on Friday with drivers told to allow extra time for journeys.
