Woodbridge Road East outside Ipswich Hospital closed next week for repairs




The road leading to the main entrance of Ipswich Hospital is set to be closed next week, Suffolk Highways has said.

Roadworks at Woodbridge Road East are planned between August 29 and September 4, with teams set to replace sections of damaged drainage pipes.

The closure will affect the roundabout on Heath Road to the hospital entrance.

The road leads directly to Felixstowe Road and sees much of the traffic from the seaside town or Kesgrave.

It also sees much traffic from the A12.

Suffolk Highways said on Twitter: "Our teams will be replacing sections of damaged drainage pipes."

Diversions will take drivers down Spring Road and Foxhall Road.
