A road which has been closed for almost two weeks is set to reopen this weekend. 

The A143 Compiegne Way in Bury St Edmunds closed due to flooding on Sunday, December 31. 

The road remained closed in the aftermath of Storm Henk. 

Suffolk Highways has provided an update as said the road will be reopened by the morning of Monday, January 15.

In a post on social media, the update said: "We apologise for the inconvenience this closure is causing.

"Our specialist contractors are attending the site tomorrow for a few days to remove silt, clear the road of floodwater and investigate further, ahead of reopening the road before Monday morning.

"The issues at this location have been made worse by vandalism of a water storage tank, which will need to be repaired or replaced."

The update also said further investigations will continue into next week and a two-way traffic light system will be installed while a permanent solution is found. 

Suffolk Highways will continue to provide updates on the progress of the road.
