Temporary traffic lights will operate in Knaresborough during two weeks of roadworks next month.

Multi-way traffic lights will be in place on York Road, at the junction of Wetherby Road, for a fortnight from April 11.

Northern Gas Networks, the gas distributor for the north of England, is replacing metal pipes with plastic pipes.

It said in a press release today the work would "ensure a safe and reliable supply of gas to customers now while getting the network ready to transport alternative greener fuels such as hydrogen in the future".

The work has been planned in collaboration with North Yorkshire County Council, the highways authority.

Scott Kitchingman, business operations lead for Northern Gas Networks, said:

“We would like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused during these essential works. However, it is vital we complete them in order to continue to maintain a safe and reliable gas supply to our customers in Knaresborough.
"We want to assure residents and road users that we will be working hard to complete this essential scheme as safely and as quickly as possible.”
