When next stage of closures for Dawsons Corner revamp start - everything you need to know
The next stage of closures at Dawsons Corner are set to get underway.
From tonight (Monday, January 12), overnight lane closures will take place between 7pm-5am on Bradford Road for a period of up to eight weeks.
The works form part of the wider £44 million revamp of the Dawsons Corner roundabout. Here’s everything you need to know...
What work will take place?
Lane closures will facilitate the installation of new drainage and the removal of several traffic islands on Bradford Road, Stanningley Bypass and Farsley Ring Road.
The overnight lane closures will allow room for equipment and for our workforce to work safely. Carrying out the work overnight will help minimise disruption. Where possible, the noisiest tasks will be completed earlier in the evening. Yorkshire Water works also begin on Monday, January 12 and January 19-23.
What Yorkshire Water work is taking place?
As part of the final road layout, Yorkshire Water needs to move an existing water supply. The lane closure will be on Bradford Road towards Stanningley, affecting the eastbound lane of the Dawsons Corner roundabout (the same as in September 2025).
This section of road is being realigned as part of the final junction layout, including changes to the kerb line and carriageway, and the construction of a new footway and cycleway. The water supply must be relocated before this work can be completed.
