Get set for delays on major Harrogate roads
Harrogate drivers can expect delays on some of the town’s busiest roads in the weeks ahead.
Gas works on Ripon Road and internet line fitting on Leeds Road beginning this week are set to cause headaches for motorists in the town.
There are also ongoing construction works on Skipton Road, close to the Ripon Road junction, which could cause further problems in the north of the town.
With schools set to return tomorrow, expect delays on these routes.
Leeds Road: September 6-13

Temporary lights have been causing significant tailbacks today on Leeds Road, around Firs Crescent, in Rossett Green.
The two-way traffic control signals are in place while CityFibre carries out work.
As part of an agreement with North Yorkshire County Council, the works are due to be finished by 3:30pm each day.

Scott Kitchingman, business operations manager 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 the residents of Harrogate.”

Works are also ongoing on Skipton Road, near the roundabout with Ripon Road.
North Yorkshire County Council is carrying out full construction work, including bridge dismantling and waterworks, as part of a project to replace the Oakbeck road bridge and footbridge with a new culvert.
Multi-way signals are due to be in place, which may cause further delays nearby to the Ripon Road gas works.
