Work to replace drainage gullies between East Knapton and West Heslerton, which started at the end of September, is now complete.

From Friday night (Nov 4), the improvements enter their second phase, involving the resurfacing of both carriageways.

Full closures will be in place from 8pm on Fridays to 6am on Mondays on the weekends of November 4 to 7, November 11 to 14 and, if required, November 18 to 21.

Eastbound traffic will be diverted onto the A169 at Malton, the A170 at Pickering and the B1261 to Staxton until re-joining the A64 and the diversion for the westbound closure is the same route in reverse.
