Work set to begin on resurfacing Downham Road in Fincham ahead of four nights’ closure
Work will begin this week to resurface a village road.
Resurfacing of a section of the A1122 Downham Road in Fincham will take place, starting from Wednesday, June 12.
To allow the work to be carried out safely and swiftly it will be necessary to close the road to through traffic on a number of dates when the surfacing is under way, line painting is being carried out, and cat’s eyes (road studs) are being renewed.
Access to properties will be maintained at all times.
The work, which is weather-dependant, will be carried out in phases with any road closures only in place for a number of hours at a time on the following dates:
- June 12 (road stud removal) evening / overnight works, 7pm start;
- June 18 (surface dressing) evening / overnight works, 7pm start;
- June 26 (road marking replacement) evening / overnight works , 7pm start;
- June 27 (road stud replacement) evening / overnight works, 7pm start;
A fully signed diversion route will be in operation for the duration of the works.
The county council thanks people for their patience while this essential road maintenance work is carried out.
The work which will cost £120,000 will be carried out by Norfolk county council’s community and environmental services department and their contractors Tarmac and Keir Highway Services.
