Suffolk County Council will be installing a new link road between the end of the existing Europa Way, Ipswich and Bramford Road (B1067), Ipswich. The new link road will form a new two-way road between Sproughton Road and Bramford Road, with a new off-road footway / cycleway facility within the extents of the new link road that connect to existing facilities. This includes the construction of a mini roundabout to form a new junction with Bramford Road.
The new link road will improve the transport network's reliability and reduce congestion by improving journey times and reducing some pressure from nearby junctions. It will also improve the safety of the existing highways network, including nearby residential estate roads, by providing a new link that would help mitigate traffic passing through residential roads. The link road will also provide new transport link options for buses, pedestrians and cyclists, enabling better accessibility and connectivity in the area.
Construction work is programmed to commence on 9 September 2024 with the aim to complete the works and open the new link road by the end of April 2025.
The next phase of works will involve working on Bramford Road and will include realignment and reconstruction of the carriageway, as well as extensive drainage improvement works.
To enable us complete this work, the road will be closed from the A14 underpass to the junction with Weaver Close from Monday 27 January to Friday 28 February 2025 to ensure the safety of highway users and our operatives.
During this time, traffic will be diverted via the B1067, A1214, A1071, B1113, B1067 and vice versa.
