Alternative route is via: Mile Cross Lane, Chartwell Road, Chartwell Road/Constitution Hill Roundabout, Chartwell Road and Mile Cross Lane (Hellesdon, Sprowston, Old Catton, Norwich).
The works promoter for this restriction/closure is: Highway Safe on behalf of Wild Tree Care.
Vehicular access will be permitted to a final destination in the Road where signs indicating such access is possible and permitted are in place.
The Order shall automatically revoke on the completion of the works when the closure is no longer necessary or otherwise on the 26th June 2026 without further notice.
If necessary, the restriction could run for a maximum period of 18 months from the date the Order is effective.
A person who contravenes, or who uses or permits the use of a vehicle in contravention of the closure imposed by the Order shall be guilty of an offence.
