YorkMix - the not so styled version!

Holgate Road junction in York looks set to be closed all week 

Northern Powergrid has told YorkMix Radio that it expects a busy junction in York to remain closed for most of the week.

The junction of Holgate Road and Blossom Street was shut on Friday after it was discovered that they needed to repair the electricity supply on the corner.

They have had to dig up part of the carriageway and the road is closed to vehicles as a result.

Cyclists and people on foot can get past though. The businesses are also open as usual as is access to property along the route.

Northern Powergrid says they expect work to be finished by Friday 29th May.

Until then diversions are in place from Holgate Bridge via Dalton Terrace and the Mount but this route has been very congested at peak periods.
