Starting February 16, drivers will face two weeks of delays on the A47 Thickthorn due to engineering works for a £200m road revamp. Temporary two-way traffic lights will be operational 24/7, managed by High Voltage Systems and Services (HVSS) for low-voltage power supply upgrades.

The project, initiated in January 2025 by Skanska under National Highways, aims to relieve congestion with new slip roads connecting the A47 and A11. Additionally, there will be a closure of the eastbound A47 on February 8 for large transformer deliveries for the Hornsea 3 Offshore Wind Farm project.
