| Section
of the A11 between Newmarket and Thetford will be closed this weekend
Many
V8 members will be making their way to Snetterton Circuit east of Thetford for
the MG Car Club's final two day race meeting of the season. This note is to forewarn
you of a serious traffic problem on the A11 which is on the route many members
will use to get to Snetterton.

 | A
section of the Fiveways Roundabout (see aerial photo alongside) on the
A11 between Newmarket and Thetford is to be closed from 8pm Friday 4th to 6am
Monday 7th October for works in connection with the construction of new dual
carriageways on the A11. As the A11 is a popular route for many MG enthusiasts
making their way to Snetterton from the west via Baldock on the A1 or via the
M11, this note is to forewarn you of the closure and to suggest a diversion
via Bury St Edmunds and then to Thetford so you can continue to Snetterton
on the A11.
The green section of Fiveways Roundabout will be closed
this weekend - see alongside. | | Ian
Quarrington says "the blue route on page 5 of the Highways Agency closure
and diversion document
takes the most awfully slow road as I know from bitter experience. I still think
the best option is to continue east on the A14 to J43 at Bury St Edmunds then
take the A143 north to Thetford, picking up the A11 again just west of that town".
That route is shown on our diversion guide note. V8
