Road closures are once again taking place across Suffolk this week and look set to cause disruption for drivers. 

Here is where to avoid on your routes across the county this week. 

A140

On Sunday a 164-tonne transformer, which is being transported on a vehicle measuring 71 metres in length, will depart from Ipswich Docks at approximately 6am.

A temporary road closure of the A140 will be necessary whilst the load moves to its destination.

A temporary overbridge at Brockford will be installed to protect the roads and structure.

Once the load has safely passed the overbridge and the road is deemed safe for public use, the overbridge will be dismantled in readiness for when the A140 can be reopened.
