Call Lane Leeds will now close to traffic overnight to help social distancing at bars

The council will trial the closure of Call Lane from 7pm until 5am until further notice to help social distancing measures.

The street is lined with bars and social distancing barriers are already in the place to widen space on the pavement.

It's hoped pedestrianising the street will provide extra space to help revellers maintain a one metre distance from other households.

Buses will be diverted while the closure is being trialled.

Services 2, 3, 3A, 12, 13, 13A, 51 and 52 will be affected, taking a diversion

Services diverted will miss Meadow Lane and this will be replaced with the Park & Ride stop on Great Wilson Street.
