Roadworks: Temporary lights in Castleford as gasworks take place

Temporary traffic lights will be in place in Castleford while Northern Gas Networks (NGN) carry out essential work.

Work to replace ageing metal pipework with plastic pipes, will take place at the junction of Holywell Lane, Fryston Road, Sheepwalk Lane and Spittal Hardwick Lane from Monday, July 21.

NGN expect work to last until around the end of August and has been planned in collaboration with Wakefield Council.

So that engineers can carry out the work safely and efficiently, temporary lights will be in place at the junction.
