Maintenance work starts next week on the Cottingley Viaduct section of the A650 Sir Fred Hoyle Way - the Bingley bypass.
It’s one of the biggest works on the relief road since it opened 21 years ago.
In 2002 the T&A reported on the final beam - a 62-tonne girder - of the relief road’s biggest bridge-frame hoisted into place by a 100,000-tonne telescopic crane
Road closures will be in place from May 31 to June 3 for maintenance work on the Cottingley Viaduct section of the Bingley Bypass.
The proposed work includes the replacement of the bridge’s expansion joints.
Here we look back at the the bypass.
