The main road between Norwich and north Norfolk coast is becoming blocked as police have warned people not to drive unless absolutely necessary.

Snow drifts have been reported on the A140 between Hevingham and Marsham as Storm Darcy continues to deliver snow across the region.

Broadland Police said the road should be avoided as it was becoming unpassable.

The road is also slow just south of Alby with Thwaite.
