Live: Harrogate district traffic and travel
Good morning, the roads are getting busier now. The lights on Ripon Road near Co-Op petrol station are causing delays again this morning. Also, the 7.51 York train is delayed by 15 minutes due to the train crew being delayed.
Good morning and welcome to a rather wet Wednesday. I've got all the temporary lights, road closures and traffic hotspots for you today so keep checking in.
The roads are likely to be wet this morning so take care walking or driving.
Give me a call on 01423 276197 or get in touch on social media if you spot anything on the roads or your bus or train is delayed.
The morning blogs are brought to you by The HACS Group.
