Traffic will continue to experience delays on two of Harrogate's main roads until Thursday due to burst water mains. Yorkshire Water has apologised for the inconvenience.

Temporary lights on Harrogate’s Wetherby road and Knaresborough road will remain in place until Thursday, Yorkshire Water said this afternoon.

Yorkshire Water is working to repair pipes near Harrogate Town AFC on Wetherby road and near Drake’s Fish and Chip Shop on Knaresborough Road.  Both have caused traffic delays.

The work comes as the problem was first identified by the company yesterday, when it said customers in the area could be experiencing low water pressure as a result.

The company issued a statement:

"Both bursts caused significant consequential damage to the road surfaces, which will need to be repaired before the roads can reopen.
"We are expecting both roads to reopen on Thursday.
"We apologise for the inconvenience and are working hard to keep the disruption to a minimum with manned operation of the lights throughout the day".
