Work is planned to start at 9.30am and continue into early August.
Church Hill, Burstall
This rural road connecting villages west of Ipswich is set to be closed from Monday morning to Friday afternoon.
The closure is to allow for the road to be resurfaced, as well as work on drainage and ditches.

Works are continuing on the A12 between Ipswich and Colchester, with the road set to be closed nightly between 9pm and 5am from junction 29 to 31.
The works are expected to continue into late August.

This road connecting villages near Bury St Edmunds is set to be closed from Monday to Friday.
Drivers will be diverted through nearby Rougham and Bradfield St George while the closure is in place.
The Street, Thornham Magna
This road through the centre of Thornham Magna, just off the A140 in mid Suffolk, will be sealed off from Monday to Thursday.
Drivers can get around the closure by heading onto the A140 for a few miles.
