    Work to begin in July

    We're resurfacing works on the A47 between Wansford and Sutton. 

    We’ll begin this work on Monday 28 July (8pm to 6am) and it will last for approximately six weeks, weeknights only, weather permitting. 

    Closures and diversions 

    To work safely, we’ll need to close the A47 between Wansford Interchange and Sutton Roundabout, and divert traffic as detailed below: 

    Traffic travelling eastbound on the A47 will need to: 

    • exit the A47 at Wansford Interchange onto the A1 southbound 
    • join the A1139 at Fletton Parkway Interchange 
    • exit onto the A1260 at Hampton Roundabout 
    • continue northbound to rejoin the A47 at Thorpe Wood Interchange 

    Traffic travelling westbound on the A47 will need to follow the same diversion as above, but in reverse.
