Drivers need to be aware that a busy Fenland route is set to be closed for two days this weekend.

The A142 Mepal Bridge will be closed from 8am tomorrow (Saturday)  and will re-open at 5am on Monday.

The reason for the closure is to allow for the ongoing works to repair faults in the bridge joints, which were installed in 2016.

The closure, the latest in a series planned, will mean drivers will have to find alternative routes for the next two days.
