It is with immense sadness that Bradwell Parish Council has heard of the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Along with so many others, our reaction is one of profound sorrow for all the members of the Royal Family and to give thanks for a life well lived and much admired.
Bradwell Parish Council offer our heartfelt and very deepest sympathy to the Royal Family. They have lost, a mother, a grandmother, and a great grandmother; as a nation we have lost one of the most remarkable figures of the last century.
Throughout her life the Queen demonstrated exemplary dedication and commitment to serving the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth and supported countless organisations and charities.
Here in Bradwell, the Queen will always be remembered for her humility and duty to her country, which helped to foster the genuine love and affection in which she was held by all of us.

I am writing to tell you that we plan to carry out essential bridge maintenance work on the A47 Breydon Bridge. Work will include replacing the hydraulics and control panel for the lifting mechanism of the bridge.
We are carrying out this work to replace obsolete systems that still run on the bridge. By undertaking this work now, we avoid any future emergency closures that could result from breakdowns of these obsolete components.
We plan to complete this work over 7 months from Sunday 4 September to Friday 10 March2023, weather conditions permitting.
Most of this work will be carried out on scaffolding placed under the bridge. This will minimise the extent of our road closures and traffic disruption as much as possible.
Closures
To allow us to carry out the work safely, we will work under temporary traffic signals during the day, with working hours of 9.30am to 3.30pm, up until Sunday 26 February 2023. Both directions of travel across the bridge will still be possible, but you may experience delays.
We will also need occasional closures of the bridge. Details of these upcoming closures can be found in the table below:

Traffic will then join the A143 at Gillingham to re-join the A47 at Beccles Road, A47 interchange. Westbound traffic will follow the same diversion as above but in reverse.
