• I had a call on Friday evening from a guy in Sible Hedingham to warn of a closed section of Weathersfield Road leading up to Church Street. According to the Essex County Council Highways website, there is still access to properties in the affected area, but otherwise my informant says that there is a road diversion in place which could add two kilometres or more to the journey. If there is access for local people, maybe cyclists will be OK, even if it means dismounting for a short section. Still, we've been warned that there could be a problem, and should bear this in mind.
