EMERGENCY water works will force a road to be closed for three days.

Derwent Road in Fulford will be shut from 9am on Tuesday until midnight on Friday, April 28, to allow the essential work to go ahead safely.

An alternative route for diverted traffic will be in place and signposted to drivers until the road re-opens.

For more information about the closure phone Darren Hobson on 01904 551367 or e-mail darren.hobson@york.gov.uk
