Northern Gas Networks (NGN), the gas distributor for the North of England, is carrying out essential repair work on gas pipes in Featherstone, West Yorkshire.
This work will ensure the continued safe and reliable supply of gas to customers in Featherstone, keeping homes and businesses safe, warm and connected.
So that engineers can carry out the work safely and efficiently, and to protect the public, some temporary traffic management measures will be put in place.
From the afternoon of Thursday 8 January, temporary traffic lights will be in place at the four-way junction of Pontefract Road, Wakefield Road, Girnhill Lane and Station Lane – close to the Lidl supermarket.
The gas supply to homes and businesses in the area is unaffected.
Mark Austerberry, Site Manager at Northern Gas Networks, said: “We would like to apologise for the inconvenience caused during these essential repair works. Our investigations are ongoing, and we’ll provide a completion date for these works as soon as we can.
“Our teams will be working 24/7 to get the repairs completed as soon as possible, and the temporary traffic lights will also be manned from 7am-7pm to minimise disruption.”
