First Bus Announcement Due To Planned Road Works Between Monday 28th October - Sunday 3rd November
There will be three separate road closures in New & Old Costessey between Monday 28th October & Sunday 3rd November. This will affect Red Line 23/23A & 24B services - detailed below.
Monday 28th October to Friday 1st November - both Breckland Road & Richmond Road in New Costessey will be closed, leaving us with no viable alternative but to operate service 23 directly up Dereham Road. This will serve all stops on Dereham Road as an alternative for any affected customers.
Monday 28th October to Sunday 3rd November - Norwich Road in Old Costessey will be closed - meaning service 23A/24B will need to operate up Norwich Road as far as Kabin Road - and will then run non-stop from there to Roundwell Medical Centre via Norwich Road & Dereham Road.
Service 31 will operate the above diversion, but turn around using Richmond Road, East Hills Road & Longwater Lane to maintain a service to Roundwell Medical Centre stops.
We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause to your journey, as Old Costessey will once again lose all bus services.
We have tried working with the council to mitigate these works but unfortunately these works are all unavoidable and need to take place during the school holidays.
Any comments on the roadworks themselves should be directed to Norfolk County Council at 0344 800 8020.
