- Affected routes:
-
501
Resurfacing work and bus lane installation work will take place on Aylsham Road from the 18th until 26th October.
Although Aylsham Road will remain open with temporary traffic light control traffic congestion is possible at busier times.
In order to minimise disruption, buses on Park & Ride route 501 between Anglia Square and Norwich Airport will be diverted , in both directions which may result in a slightly extended journey time.
Once finished the newly created bus lane will help with the reliability of buses in the Aylsham Road area.
