| Orwell bridge likely to be shut on Friday? 17:48 - Oct 21 with 1405 views | DBaldy |
Just seen the weather forecast - winds of 30-50 mph with gusts up to 65mph on Friday evening. I believe the threshold for it being shut is 50mph?
Could make for an interesting / very annoying journey for a lot of us given how town pretty much grinds to a halt after every match anyway. |  | | |  |

60mph is the closure level.
BBC predicting up to 43mph in that area so hopefully will be ok. |  | | |

That has to be the worst nickname in football. I’m no fan of the Tractor Boys but it’s nowhere near that bad. | | | |

depends on the wind direction on the bridge, but the forecast will change as it gets closer. the metoffice is already just showing a max 46mph gusts. the wind speed is slightly different on the bridge due to the elevation. but probably just speed restrict it.
I was more bothered about spending another 40mins standing in a queue to get in again, whilst its raining. | | | |

When they can, they just reduce the speed limit to 40 instead of closing it completely. |  |
