DRIVERS are being reminded that one of the worst streets for potholes in York is set to close for work from tomorrow (July 25).

As The press reported last week, Shipton Street in Clifton is set to close from 8am tomorrow until 5pm on Friday (July 28) for resurfacing works.

It's not clear at this stage whether it's just for some of the numerous deep potholes to be patched up or whether it's for a full resurface.

Last Year the street made it on to a top ten of York's worst streets voted for by readers and was then said to be in urgent need of a complete resurfacing job.

Shipton Street has potholes running along it's full length to its junctions with Burton Stone Lane and Newborough Street at both ends.

Residents claim the road is in urgent need of a full resurface, and that it has been in a state of disrepair for more than a decade.
