The A64 at Rillington between Malton and Scarborough could be closed for up to 48 hours after Sunday’s incident where a water main burst.

North Yorkshire Police and Yorkshire Water were called in as the road flooded. Traffic is now being diverted around the village with some long delays expected again on the journey to and from Scarborough and Filey.
