Great Massingham & Harpley disruption
20th Jul 2026 - 16th Oct 2026
From Monday 20th July to Friday 16th October 2026 there will be disruption to our services 48 and 49A due to a number of road closures in Great Massingham for Norfolk County Council works. This will unfortunately cause disruption to our services as follows:
More information
From Monday 20th to Friday 16th October 2026 (inclusive) – Lynn Lane (between Massingham and Grimston) will be closed.
As a result of this the first service 48 of the day will commence opposite Great Massingham Fire Station (at 0710hrs) and then head north to Harpley for 0714hrs (instead of commencing at Harpley and then travelling south to Great Massingham). Great Massingham Church cannot be served during this period.
In addition to the above closure, Station Road in Great Massingham will also be closed from Monday 20th July to Friday 31st July. Regrettably, this means that our buses on route 49A are unable to serve Great Massingham at all. These buses will therefore be on a diversion route which will serve Harpley as normal but then divert via the A148, Hillington and Grimston to re-join the normal route at Gayton.
To ensure that customers still have access to buses to/from King’s Lynn at key times Barrys Cars are providing a shuttle bus service from Great Massingham to Harpley (Rose & Crown) to connect with our 49A buses. The shuttle bus timetable is available at the link on this page.
Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused but disruption such as this is completely outside of our control.
