To allow for the replacement of gas mains, Sandy Lane will be closed (between Bessemer Road and the rail bridge) from Monday 13th October 2025 until Friday 24th October 2025.

Unfortunately, this means that service 39 will be unable to serve Sandy Lane between Barrett Road and Bessemer Road.

For the duration of the closure all service 39 journeys will operate their usual route from the city centre as far as the end of Mansfield Road. They will then operate along Barrett Lane to the roundabout and then to the terminus on Hall Road.

Journeys towards the city centre will operate as usual on to Bessemer Road but then via Hall Road and Barrett Road to resume the usual route at Mansfield Lane.

We apologise to any customers affected by this diversion which is outside our control.

Church Road, Kessingland will be closed between Monday 6th October 2025 and Friday 24th October 2025 to allow for work associated with the replacement of gas mains.

As a result Service 99 will be unable to serve Church Road, Wash Lane or Field Lane and will instead operate via High Street.

We apologise to all customers affected by this alteration to our service.

Due to final bypass works taking place between the Long Stratton Bypass north roundabout & Long Stratton itself - the road will be closed from Monday 15th September to Tuesday 21st October.

Services 36/36A/36B from Norwich will join the A140 Long Stratton bypass, to then enter Long Stratton from the south to complete a loop of Swan Lane/Manor Road/Flowerpot Lane to then either head back to Norwich or Harleston.

Services towards Norwich will operate the above diversion in reverse - but will operate the same one-way loop around Long Stratton, so please check destination screens or with the driver to ensure you have boarded the correct bus.

UPDATE 15/09 08:59 - Services 36A/36B will follow the old diversion until end of service on Tuesday 16th September, leaving Stratton towards Harleston via the north & bypass as the switchover has been delayed.

UPDATE 06/10 15:30 - This diversion has been extended until 21st October.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
