A47 Blofield to North Burlingham dualling

Results updated 11 Sep 2018

We are now holding our statutory consultation for this scheme. To find out more, and to give us your views, please visit the 2018 consultation page.

Having reviewed the feedback following the consultation, and completed a number of other assessments, we are proceeding with Option 4 presented at our consultation.

Option 4 was the favoured option by the public by a significant margin and solves the traffic and safety problems.

It can be built with the least disruption to drivers during construction, has the least impact on the environment and the existing road can remain for local traffic, pedestrians, cyclists and equestrians.

This will now be developed further before a statutory consultation.

You can find more detailed information on the Preferred Route Announcement in the leaflet below.

We have also published the consultation report linked below.
