Emergency Closure for Road Near Driffield

Wednesday, 22 January 2025 15:43

By Matthew Pells

An emergency road closure has been put in place for a route near Driffield because of sudden damage to its surface.

The North Dalton Road, Huggate/Huggate Road, North Dalton has had to be temporarily closed by East Riding of Yorkshire Council today (Wednesday 22 January) for the safety of road users while repairs are carried out.

The council will carry out patching work starting on Monday 27 January, with the aim of reopening the road as soon as possible afterwards.

The official closure order is for three weeks, but the road is expected to reopen before then.

A temporary diversion has been put in place, directing traffic via Driffield Road, Tibthorpe Road, Huggate Road, Main Street, Bainton Road and the Bainton roundabout.  

Access will be maintained for residents of the affected roads for the duration of the closure.

Councillor Paul West, the council’s cabinet member for environment and transport, said:

“Thanks to local residents and road users for bearing with us while we carry out these necessary repairs so we can make the road safe to open again.”
