"We contacted Highways England for a comment, and their spokesman said: "We are currently working with partners and stakeholders to reach solutions to address the significant increase in traffic levels in Ipswich when the Orwell Bridge is closed.
"Separating vehicles susceptible to the effect of side winds is not currently a viable option due to the layout of the A14 approaching the bridge.
"There isn’t an obvious filter point, such as roundabouts, at which to divert them and this would create unacceptable safety risks to those who would have to separate the traffic.
"The diversion activity itself would also create further congestion"
Is the person who replied a driver? Have they ever driven from Copdock Interchange to Bucklesham?
From West to East:
Impose a temp speed restriction from Sproughton to Nacton
Matrix boards at all junctions from Claydon to Wherstead with temporary height restrictions over outside lane from Copdock to Wherstead and both lanes from the point of the slip road at Wherstead.
From East to West:
Impose a temporary speed restriction from Felixstowe to Wherstead
Matrix boards all the way from Felixstowe temporary height restrictions over outside lane from Bucklesham and both lanes from the point of the slip road at Nacton.

That sounds like the local council in the village I grew up in, it had 3 schools and they sold 2 of them both had a very large playing field to housing as the school numbers had dropped, then built several hundred 2, 3 and 4 bedroom homes. The less than a year later they were surprised that there was now a severe shortage of school places in the village. |  | | |
