Hammersley Lane will be closed for the next week due to "emergency" roadworks.

The road was closed off this morning (September 15) at 10:11am after a suspected gas leak.

Gas network, Cadent is currently working on the "utility repair and maintenance works".

According to the one.network website, the road will remain closed until 23:59pm on September 22.
