A NEW road layout planned for a pollution blackspot in North Yorkshire is going on display next week.

North Yorkshire County Council has drawn up plans to tackle air quality problems at Bond End in Knaresborough.

They will go on display at a public "Meet the Designers" event on Thursday, June 28 from 2pm to 7pm at Knaresborough House, Knaresborough.

County council highways staff and the authority’s consultants, WSP, will be there to talk to visitors about the final design which would see the traffic lights replaced with two mini roundabouts.

Work on the new layout will begin later this year.
