This news article on RailNetwork.info mentions it is expected to be finished in Spring 2011, which is roughly about now. I've done a very quick search online but no luck yet in finding any mentions of it having been completed yet. Personally, I would advise contacting Network Rail on 08457 11 41 41 or NXEA on 0845 600 7245 and asking them about it, or give up on the Ipswich option and go with Peterborough.

Hope this helps, if only somewhat.

The National Rail Enquiries website says:

Please note that building work began in July 2010 for a new footbridge and lifts at the station. Works are due to be completed by mid-May 2011, and will make the station fully accessible to all customers. We apologise for any inconvenience whilst the works take place.
