What do I need to know about these works?
Refurbishing the bridge requires grit blasting works, which are very noisy. Although we will be using acoustic covers on site to help prevent some of this noise, our works will still be very loud.
East Suffolk Council are aware of the noise and have granted the required permission for the works to proceed. We will liaise with them throughout the scheme to monitor the level of noise and we will also aim to complete the noisiest of the works by early evening to help minimise disruption.
We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused by the noise from these essential refurbishment works, which are required to ensure the safety and longevity of the bridge.
