The Parish Council have received the following notice from RAF Marham:

RAF Marham wishes to advise local residents that, from the week commencing Monday 27th July, runway operations will temporarily move to the KILO taxiway while essential resurfacing works take place on the main runway.

As a result of this change, local residents in the villages of Barton Bendish, Beachamwell and Fincham may notice a change to the usual flight pattern, with aircraft flying to the south of these villages during the works.

These works are expected to continue until the autumn, after which normal runway operations and flight patterns will resume.

RAF Marham apologises for any inconvenience this may cause and thanks local communities for their continued understanding and support.

Thanks
