There is a gas leak under the highway and engineers need to pinpoint exactly where it is. Northern Gas Networks (NGN), the gas distributor for the north of England, is carrying out the essential work on Sunday. The project has been planned with Leeds City Council.
Traffic management measures will be put in place while the work takes place to protect members of the public. Between 8am and 1pm, two of the three lanes on the outbound carriageway of Dewsbury Road will be closed. Advance warning signs will be displayed for motorists.
