Work to replace old traffic signals in Pudsey town centre is due to start today (Sunday, 8 September).
Essential highway works are scheduled to take place at the junction of Church Lane and Market Place to replace the existing traffic signals, which have exceeded their expected lifespan.
The works will affect Church Lane, Lidget Hill, Lowtown, Robin Lane and Market Place and will last until 3 October 2024.
The new signals will be energy-efficient LED lights, contributing to carbon reduction.
A council spokesperson said: “Our teams will work diligently to minimise disruption, but please be aware that there will be some impact on traffic flow during this period.
“To mitigate inconvenience and to maintain traffic flows, works in the carriageway will be limited to off-peak hours whenever possible. For example, lane closures for the installation of cross carriageway ducting or to provide safe working zones.
“We appreciate your understanding and patience during this essential improvement project. Our goal is to enhance safety, reduce congestion, and contribute to a greener environment.”
