Works to make Leeds city centre an "even safer place to live, work and visit" are now underway, the council has confirmed.
In preparation for City Square's permanent closure to general traffic in February next year, all through-traffic will now be diverted away from the area opposite the railway station. Leeds City Council says the work will help create a "world-class gateway to the city centre" and will transform City Square into a "more people-first environment."
The council has confirmed diversions for traffic travelling north into the city are in place along Neville Street, Bishopgate Street and Swinegate.
