Good morning and welcome back to the traffic and travel service. We have updates every 15 minutes as more people get onto the roads.
The live blogs, brought to you by The HACS Groups, aim to keep the Harrogate district moving.
A number of temporary traffic lights are in place across the district today, due to roadworks, so be aware of slight delays.
The Harrogate district spring 2021 Back to Bus launched this week with most services returning to their pre-lockdown schedules.
