In a report in the Yorkshire Evening Post website it states 'New York Road Tunnel, located just outside the city centre and on Leeds inner ring road, will close to all vehicles on Monday, February 12, until the autumn for "essential" maintenance of the New York Road Flyover. Leeds City Council and construction partner Balfour Beatty will carry out repair works and replace 27 bearings on New York Road Flyover. A diversion route is in place and the council has apologised in advance for any potential disruption'.

I noticed this too. Said tunnel was closed for the duration of the replacement of the Regent Street Bridge. Couldn't the 2 jobs gave been completed simultaneously, or does that require joined up thinking aka intelligence?
