York road closed by repair works to burst water main

A York road has been closed to fix a burst water main.

Hamilton Drive West was shut today (Thursday) near to the roundabout linking it to Green Lane and Tudor Road.

Yorkshire Water engineers were on scene, digging down to pipe level.

Traffic approaching the roundabout for Hamilton Drive West is being diverted along Moorgate.

The good news is that the disruption is not meant to last for long.

A Yorkshire Water spokesperson told YorkMix: “The works on Hamilton Drive West were for a burst water main which was quickly repaired.

“The reinstatement and reopening is planned for tomorrow (Friday, 16 May).”
