North Yorkshire road closure and new speed limit introduced
A temporary road closure in Norton and a new speed limit in Gate Helmsley have been announced by North Yorkshire Council.
North Yorkshire Council has confirmed a temporary road closure in Norton and the introduction of a new speed limit in Gate Helmsley.
Hunters Way in Norton will be closed to traffic for up to two weeks as works are carried out.
The closure may be in place at some point between June 15 and July 31, although access to properties will be maintained where possible.


The council said the closure will be signed on site, with a local diversion route put in place where appropriate.
Meanwhile, a new 30mph speed limit has been introduced on part of Upper Helmsley Road in Gate Helmsley.
The order, which came into force on June 15, extends the existing 30mph restriction by 90 metres north from the northern boundary of the property known as Stone Lea.
North Yorkshire Council made the order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. Documents relating to the speed limit change are available for public inspection until July 17.
The council said anyone wishing to challenge the validity of the order may apply to the High Court within six weeks of June 5, the date on which the order was made.
