MOTORISTS will have to find an alternative route while improvements are made to an Ipswich road.

The Travel Ipswich improvement works scheme will see Portman Road and Princes Street south temporarily closed on Friday and Monday to Wednesday.

There will be no vehicular access from Princes Street into Portman Road and a diversion will be put in place.

Access for residents and businesses will be from the junction of Handford Road with Portman Road or from Sir Alf Ramsey Way onto Portman Road.

Anyone with questions about the works should call the 24-hour Skanska Customer Service Team on 0800 066 5006.
