CONNECTING LEEDS…

CLOSURES FOR RESURFACING VARIOUS SECTIONS OF THE ROAD

CONNECTING LEEDS…
After 18 months of construction, a multi-million pound Connecting Leeds scheme which is set to transform one of the city’s busiest streets is close to completion as work to resurface the road starts.
The Headrow scheme, once complete in May, aims to give people more appealing alternatives to the car by making bus services quicker and more reliable. Plus it will ensure that journeys on foot and by bike are more convenient, attractive and safer. The overall vision is to create easier connections between bus and rail services and safer, greener and less vehicle dominated areas which will work towards achieving Leeds City Council’s Climate Emergency 2030 net zero carbon target.

The resurfacing work which will start in April is one of the final tasks ahead of completion in mid-May. There will be a series of full weekend closures at various sections of the road.

The dates of these are:

  • Friday 23 April 8pm – Monday 26 April 5.30am: Headrow – Vicar Lane junction to Park Row junction
  • Friday 30 April 8pm – Monday 3 May 5.30am: Headrow – Park Row junction to Westgate
  • Friday 7 May 8pm – Monday 10 May 5.30am: Vicar Lane and New York Road junction
