There are likely to be delays on some of Norfolk's busiest roads including the A47 as a 44-tonne abnormal load leaves the county.

The load, which measures 75 feet long and 16 feet wide, will travel from North Walsham to Poole in Dorset from 9am on Tuesday, May 26.

Norfolk Constabulary vehicles will escort it as it uses Gaymers Way, Folgate Road and B1145.

From here, the convoy will join the A149 and follow the B1152, A1064, A47, A140 and A14, before continuing to the Cambridgeshire border and Birchanger J8 M11.
