Key Morley through route to face disruption for two weeks as water works get underway

A key through route in south Leeds is set to face disruption for two weeks.

Fountain Street in Morley, which connects Corporation Street and Britannia/Bruntcliffe Road, is to face disruption as Yorkshire Water continues to work to replace lead piping in the area.

Temporary traffic lights will be in place between Little Fountain Street and East Park Street, from Wednesday, August 12 to Friday, August 28.

A letter sent to residents and seen by the Yorkshire Evening Post, confirmed that these lights will be manually controlled at peak times to maintain the flow of traffic.

Engineers will be on site from 8am to 5pm, Monday to Friday only.

Driveways will not be impacted but some on-street parking will be affected. Bin collections will continue as normal.
