Planned Roadworks for 2026

Planned carriageway maintenance scheme on the A134 Stoke Road in Wormegay. 

Which is scheduled to commence on 23/02/2026. 

The works will take place over an estimated period of five weeks, subject to weather conditions and unforeseen circumstances. 

To ensure the safety of both the workforce and the travelling public, a full road closure will be required for the duration of the works. Advance warning signs will be erected, and a signed diversion route will be in place throughout the closure. 

We appreciate that road closures can cause inconvenience, and every effort will be made to minimise disruption.

 Access for emergency services will be maintained at all times, and we will work closely with affected residents and businesses to manage access needs wherever possible. 

Please see the plan showing the location of our works and a copy of the diversion route which will be in place for the duration of the works. 

Big changes are coming to how council services are run in Norfolk and we want to hear what matters most to you.

Right now, different councils do different jobs - like helping with housing, schools, rubbish collection, transport, and more. But the Government wants to reduce the number of councils and bring services together to be provided by new 'unitary councils' (also known as unitary authorities), instead of by existing borough, city, district and county councils. 

The Government has asked all Norfolk councils to send in their proposals for what the future of service delivery could look like. If areas can't agree a proposal for the future, the Government has said it will pass a law to proceed with its own proposal. 

Breckland Council, Borough Council of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, Broadland District Council, Great Yarmouth Borough Council, North Norfolk District Council, and Norwich City Council are working collaboratively on this and we believe having three unitary councils would best serve the people of Norfolk (as opposed to having one or two). 

Having three councils would ensure a local focus:

• People: Strengthen local democracy, increase transparency, and make decision-making close to home
• Place: Celebrate the unique identity, strengths, challenges, and heritage of different areas
• Progress: Build a resilient, sustainable future for Norfolk that can adapt to changing needs 

Any changes could affect your services and who helps make decisions for your area - both locally and in raising Norfolk's voice nationally. That's why we want you and everyone in your community to complete a short survey to tell us about your priorities for future services. Your responses will tell us what you really think about your area and help inform our submission to the Government.
