Traffic disruption expected in Killinghall next week
Delays are expected in Killinghall next week when new electricity cables are laid for the village's forthcoming Tesco Express.
Temporary traffic lights will be installed and buses and lorries will be prevented from turning in and out of Otley Road from Ripon Road.
The measures will allow Northern Powergrid to excavate a trench and install cables beneath the pavement outside the Tesco on Ripon Road.
Northern Powergrid has written to residents saying work is expected to last 10 days. The letter says:
The letter adds the traffic lights will "inevitably lengthen journey times" and buses will be affected.
A barrier and temporary walkway will operate outside the Tesco for pedestrians.

A spokesman for The Harrogate Bus Company, which is part of the French company Transdev, said:
The Stray Ferret asked Tesco when the store was due to open. All it would say was "early 2022".
