Busy junction to reopen after water main leak

A busy road junction in Hull is due to reopen on Wednesday following repairs to a burst water main.

Motorists have been unable to join Princes Avenue from Spring Bank and Spring Bank West since the damaged pipe was found on 22 May.

Yorkshire Water said repairs had been completed and workers had been waiting for concrete to cure before lifting the closure.

"We'd like to apologise for the disruption and thank everyone in the area for their patience whilst we worked to repair the burst on Princes Avenue and reinstate the road," a spokesperson said.

Commuters and residents previously described the delays caused by the work as a "nightmare".
