Essential road works are due to be carried out in Bridlington that will close the bus station for at least two days.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is set to carry out deep structural works to repair the road surface along Marshall Avenue on Monday 24 and Tuesday 25 July, between 9am and 3pm.

The work will cost around £10,000 and is being carried out to fix underlying issues with the ground which were uncovered after the road was resurfaced last year and caused parts of the road to sink.
