Essential work to upgrade the gas mains in Ben Rhydding will be completed this weekend (3rd August), a week ahead of schedule.

The site safety barriers and temporary traffic lights will be taken down and the parking facilities on Bolling Road will return to normal.

The major upgrade involved replacing the existing metal gas mains with more durable plastic pipes which will ensure the continued safe and reliable supply of gas to customers in the area for years to come.

Ian Cunningham, Customer Operations Area Manager for Bradford said: “We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused throughout the duration of our essential work, and thank business owners, residents and members of the public for the patience and understanding they have shown throughout.”
