DAVIDH Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 3 hours ago, gancanny said: i came through saturday and it was almost clear both ways but it was early evening, just a heads up david, it is around 8 minutes from sutton bridge to the roundabout at kingslynn but going via wisbech it is 35 minutes providing you get by without problems, when the work first started it was chaotic so i waited to see how long the queue was, did a 3 point turn in the road, back to the roundabout and away on the diversion Sounds a good plan. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouldy Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Read a post on FB that the road from Acle past the bridge is closed at The Hermitage due to a water leak. They estimate it will take between 2 and 6 days to fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwanR Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Ian I have just read that the road closure at Acle may have been lifted this afternoon. Anglian Water have managed to fix the burst main sooner than anticipated. Guessing that might be a better way back to Martham than up through Wroxham if you're out and about at the weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Acle Bridge Inn reported on FB that the roadworks are still there but traffic light controlled now. I haven’t been through, so unsubstantiated, but as the road closure must have impacted their non boat trade, I guess they’ve an interest in reporting the current status. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
