Damaged cladding to bridge

Reported via mobile in the Structures (eg bridges, fencing, noise barriers) (NH) category anonymously at 06:56, Thursday 26 February 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9001469.

Whilst driving eastbound on the a47 outside Dereham I noted some loose precast cladding panels on the side of the bridge deck over the carriageway. One panel already appeared to be missing whilst one had a notable gap where it appeared to have become loose. As this is over the carriage way I would suggest this needs reviewing fairly quickly. I can’t recall exactly which bridge it was but was one of the three bridges on the eastern side of Dereham.
