but now the original purpose of the build is no longer in existence then I still think the road should be re-instated back for the "sightseers"

The original purpose of the build was to construct a deep water port. That is still there, so the reason the road was closed is still in place.
If people want to watch the ships coming into port they can watch from Gorleston Pier.

Im not sure what the port gets used for now the cranes have gone but 'elf n safetee' rules and regs would rule out a return to public use of those roads. I travelled along those roads just before they were closed and it was obvious why they had to be closed because they ran right through the middle of the new port between where the good would be unloaded and the offices and warehouses west of the road where all the port import/export admin etc... would be done.
