Good morning, I hope you're good this morning. The roads have been a little quieter this week in terms of traffic but numerous roadworks are adding time to people's journeys.
This blog, brought to you by the HACS Group, brings you live travel updates until 9am.
Please give me a call on 01423 276197 or join our Facebook group 'Harrogate district traffic and travel' to give any updates.
