Live: Harrogate District traffic and travel
Good morning, the roads are getting busier now. Traffic on Wetherby Road is currently causing 10 minute delays.
Good morning it's Friday and that makes me very happy, although I wish the nice weather had stuck around.
It's Suzannah on traffic and travel duty today, do you have any updates for me? Give me a call on 01423 276197.
It looks like it'll rain throughout the day in parts so stay safe on the roads.
The morning blogs are brought to you by The HACS Group and aim to give you a smooth journey.
