Villagers in Wheldrake were braced for Main Street to close for six days from today to allow for 'patching'.
But the anticipated closure at 9.30am this morning didn't happen; and now a notice has appeared on Causeway one.network suggesting the closure has been postponed until August 15.
The Press has sought urgent clarification from City of York Council, which ordered the road closure - due to be in force between 9.30am and 3pm for six days from today - to allow for 'patching'.
Wheldrake parish council chair Graeme Urwin said today nobody in the village had been notified that the road closure would not be going ahead - and said it was still unclear whether bus companies had been informed.
