Drivers in a market town are set to face yet more disruption with another road closure.

Middleton Street in Wymondham will be shut (except for pedestrian access) from its junction with Vicar Street for 75 metres to facilitate frame and cover repair works by Anglian Water.

The closure is set to be in place between 7.30am to 5pm on October 27, 2026 but could remain until December 8, 2026 if necessary.

This road provides a crucial route both in and out of the town centre and to many of the town's shops.

An alternative route will be put in place via Middleton Street, Church Street and Vicar Street.

Access to properties on the road will be allowed where signs indicating permitted access are in place.

The works come just over a month after four-way traffic lights were installed on Norwich Road and Postmill Close near Morrisons for emergency gas repair works by Cadent.

Drivers also faced "chaos" at the town's Waitrose roundabout at the end of August due to temporary traffic lights.
