A660 scheme update December

The next few weeks before Christmas will see a number of works happening in Sections 1,2 and 5. Find out more about each below. 

Section 1 – A660 Otley Road and Headingley Lane from Shaw Lane to North Lane

• Construction work on the western side of the road, between North Lane and Shaw Lane is starting and the works will be undertaken at night. This helps to enable faster construction and less disruption on the network – helping buses and local businesses by reducing daytime disruption. Night works will be between 7pm-5am with noisy works taking place prior to 11pm. Local businesses have been engaged with to inform them of the night works outside their buildings.
• Daytime works will continue in front of Headingley Central (Arndale) to provide an improved pedestrian crossing, new cycle track and new paving towards Wood Lane.

Section 2 – A660 Headingley Lane from North Lane to Richmond Avenue

• Daytime works to continue between St.Michael’s Road and North Lane

Section 5 – Hyde Park Corner 

• We will continue construction at the Woodhouse Street closure throughout December – the road closure will be lifted over the Christmas period, to allow access into and out of the city centre and will be reintroduced on January 5th 2026. Signage is onsite, and our contractor’s stakeholder engagement officer has continued communication with affected businesses face-to-face throughout.
• Works will then move towards Victoria Road junction which is the final area of the job.

Thank you for your continued patience during the works. You can contact us at any time at connectingleeds@leeds.gov.uk.
