Utility works are causing long delays on a major road into Norwich. 

Temporary traffic lights are in place on a section of the A146 between Loddon and Norwich while utility works are carried out by Openreach in Thurton.

The works, which started on Friday evening, have been causing long delays for people heading in both directions.

One commuter said her journey time from Loddon to Norwich is taking twice as long as usual.

This morning her bus journey, which usually takes 30 minutes, had taken an hour.  

Described by Openreach as "utility repair and maintenance works", they are expected to be completed by 5pm on Tuesday.
