Drivers are facing a month of delays due to a road closure for £100k resurfacing works.

Work is due to start on May 15 to surface dress a section of the A1101 Elm High and Outwell Road in Emneth, Wisbech. 

To allow the Norfolk County Council work to be carried out safely, the road will be closed to traffic on a number of dates for surfacing, line painting and road stud renewal.
