Description
Norfolk's A47 and A11 junction improvement scheme is approved
The Secretary of State for Transport has approved a multi-million pound plan to overhaul a junction on one of the country's most dangerous roads.
The classic slot game is a game สล็อต wallet เครดิตฟรี with an easy-to-access gameplay and a lot of tricks to play, making it easy for players to understand and make money in the game without difficulty. ”
Improvements will be made to the Thickthorn roundabout, near Norwich, which straddles the A11 and the A47.
Work will begin next year and the redeveloped Thickthorn junction should be fully open to traffic by early 2025.
The changes will include free-flowing connections between the A-roads and extra lanes and pedestrian crossings.
A half-mile link road, with a 40mph limit, will also be built providing direct access to the junction from Cantley Lane South and Norwich Road (B1172).
A footbridge over the A47 will also be put in place around 45m (148ft) to the east of the current bridge, which will be removed.
The new bridge has been specifically designed to have higher railings for increased safety, particularly for horse riders.
National Highways' £161m scheme was approved by Transport Secretary Anne-Marie Trevelyan, with the granting of a development consent order (DCO).
This is a way of obtaining permission for a development which is seen as nationally important for the infrastructure of the country.
The granting of the DCO means preparatory work on the project can begin later this year with construction due to begin in early 2023.
