About the event
The A47 is an important route linking the Cities of Norwich and Peterborough.
This is a multi-billion investment to improve journeys on England’s major roads, the current A47 has over 25,000 vehicles per day and a poor safety record, we will be building 1.6miles of new dual carriageway, constructing two new bridges and creating agricultural access tracks, there will be significant benefits to the scheme:
- Improve safety for all road users
- reduce congestion and make journey times more reliable and provide capacity for future growth
- provide safer routes for horses, cyclists and horseriders and other vulnerable road users
- protect the environment by minimising any adverse impacts
- help enable regional development and growth in Norwich and the surrounding area
