Leeds United supporters travelling to the City Ground for Saturday’s game with Nottingham Forest are being urged to allow extra time to travel to the City Ground.

We have been informed of a road closure on the A52, with part of Clifton Bridge set to remain closed over the weekend.

During planned maintenance works, it was discovered that water damage had corroded some of the steel works underneath the road.

Highways England has closed the eastbound carriageway, which carries traffic out of the city centre and investigations into the damage will be continuing across the weekend.

Head of service delivery at Highways England, Adrian Oulds, said: "We appreciate road closures are frustrating for people but the safety of the public and road users is always the priority for Highways England.

“We are grateful to drivers for their patience and would urge them to allow extra time for journeys and avoid the area if possible.”
