No disruption to flights as NDR work commences

The Northern Distributor Road is a 12.5 mile road which will stretch from the A47 at Postwick to the A1067 Fakenham Road. The project was given the go ahead last year and work has now commenced along the route and is expected to be complete in early 2018.

Whilst the new road will see a new junction close to the airport, the construction of the Northern Distributor road will have no impact on airport operations.

Richard Pace, General Manager of Norwich International comments “The airport has worked closely with Norfolk County Council and contractors to ensure that the safe operation of the airport is maintained at all times. We welcome this key piece of infrastructure which will improve access to the airport for many.”
