Over the past couple of weeks we have been progressing with the YW water main diversion. We've been laying kerbs to the south of Market Weighton Road and have been carrying out drainage works and laying ducts for the new street lighting scheme. This coming week contractors working for YW will be preparing to drill under the A19 for the water main diversion. The drill pulls a pipe along with it under the road. The YW water main will be pulled through the pipe which prevents us from having to excavate a trench right through the carriageway. Over the next 2 weeks we will be forming the new manholes and continuing with drainage and kerbing works to the south of Market Weighton Road.
Ongoing temporary traffic lights on the A19 and Market Weighton Road

For the next 7 weeks temporary 3 way traffic lights will continue to be in operation Monday to Friday. The lights are required to ensure the safety of our workers where they have to work immediately alongside the A19. We apologise for the delays that some of you will be experiencing. The temporary traffic lights will be in operation daily between 9.30 am and 4pm. The A19 and Market Weighton Road will be returned to full lane running outside these times. The A19 and Market Weighton Road will remain fully open during this period. Please allow extra time within your journey to allow for some disruption due to the temporary traffic lights during the hours noted above. Please also be mindful of the temporary enforceable reduction in the speed limit of 60 mph to 40 mph to protect our workforce.
