DRIVERS may face delays around a busy Bradford route this morning due to emergency water main repairs. 

Beacon Road, Horton Bank Top, is closed in both directions from Speeton Avenue to Cooper Lane. 

According to traffic alerts, the problem was first reported at 4am this morning. 

The road is well used by those travelling between Bradford and Halifax and vice versa. 

A Yorkshire Water spokesperson said: “Our teams are working hard to fix a burst water main on Beacon Road, Bradford.

"The road is closed whilst our teams are working and will reopen when it’s safe to do so.”
