Hide AdA spokesman for Anglian Water said: “In order to repair the sewer we have had to close the road.
“The sewer is four metres down. We don’t know how complicated the work will be, so we do not know how long the closure will be in place.
“No-one has been without service as a result of the collapse, and we have been putting in an overland sewer pipe for the duration of the works so no-one will be off grid. “We apologise for the disruption caused.”
