Anglian Water previously apologised after the original delay stating that it was down to the complex nature of the repairs.
A spokesman said at the time: “It has been a significant engineering challenge with a number of other essential utilities and services under the road and sitting on top of our damaged main that we must navigate.
“We have to be extremely careful when working around these other pipes and cables to ensure they are not damaged, and that can make work slower than we would like.”
The works, which have at times coincided with other road closures, have caused major delays for motorists while the repairs were taking place.
