A GAS leak in The Mount area of York has seen the closure of a lane of traffic as engineers work to fix the problem.

A spokesman for United Utilities said there was no danger to the public from the leak and said he hoped repair work would be completed by tomorrow.

He said: “Engineers are working to fix a leak on a low-pressure gas main. At the moment we are working between the junction of Scarcroft Road and Dalton Terrace.”
