Two York roads are to close for resurfacing – and motorists are being warned to expect disruption.
City of York Council will be carrying out resurfacing works on:
- Foss Bank from Monday 4 November between 7.30pm till 5am working Monday to Friday
- Gale Lane from Monday 18 November between 9.15am till 5pm working Monday to Friday.
Foss Bank
A diversion route will be set out for through traffic. Buses will be diverted during working hours. The diversion for bus service 14 will be Heworth Green, Eboracum Way and Layerthorpe.
Site staff will be on hand to advise and assist residents about the access restrictions once the works are ongoing.
Any specific access requirements may be arranged by speaking to the onsite staff who will co-ordinate with residents and business requirements around ongoing construction operations.
There will be no access to Sainsbury’s from Foss Bank during the works period. However, customers will be able to access Sainsbury’s from Jewbury.
Gale Lane
Buses will be diverted during working hours. This includes a diversion for bus service 4 – at southern end of Green Lane, turn around roundabout and return through Acomb via Green Lane, Front St, Gale Lane, resuming normal route at Cornlands Rd.
Service 24 – from Ascot Way terminus via Kingsway West, Danesford Ave, Stuart Rd, Tudor Rd, Green Lane, Front St, Gale Lane, Cornlands Rd resuming normal route halfway along Cornlands Rd.
Emergency services will be permitted through at all times. Cyclists will have to dismount and use the footways.
A City of York Council spokeswoman said: “As with any construction work, there is likely to be a certain amount of disruption and inconvenience to the public, however everything will be done to keep any disruption to a minimum.”
