Workmen from UK Power Networks have been at the site on Bracondale, by the junction with King Street, since lunchtime today (Wednesday) fixing a power cable.

It has meant that one of the lanes on the two-lane city centre-bound route has been partially blocked, slowing traffic down.

However, workmen at the site said the road should be back to normal by tomorrow morning.

A UK Power spokesman said: 'UK Power Networks engineers recently fixed a power cut in Bracondale, Norwich and need to carry out repair work to an electricity cable.

'We are sorry for any inconvenience caused by our lane closure, and we will be working through the night to complete works as quickly as possible.'
