The roadworks in Cemetery Road, York, which have caused serious congestion, are on schedule to finish by next Monday night - subject to the right weather.

Yorkshire Water is due to reinstate the road on Monday, following the completion of repairs to collapsed sewers, providing bad weather does not intervene to force a postponement of the work.

The works were originally due to finish today but were delayed.
