North Yorkshire County Council said the traffic lights failed once this morning but were repaired before they failed again this afternoon.

Contractors were dispatched to repair the lights again and investigate the cause of the failure but the council said the issue is not thought to be related to the roadworks at the Prince of Wales roundabout.
