Preparation works to begin for £49m Howden Relief Road
 Preparation works are to begin for a planned £49m scheme to create a new relief road for Howden.
Initial work is due to start on Monday 1 July to prepare for the creation of the new Howden Relief Road which will link the A614 Thorpe Road with Station Road.
It is hoped work on the major scheme will start in January 2025, with construction taking around 29 months.
The £49m project is designed to reduce congestion by diverting some heavy traffic away from the town centre, prevent accidents and lower carbon emissions.

Wildlife murals unveiled on Beverley bridge
 New murals featuring local wildlife have been unveiled under a Beverley bridge in a bid to prevent graffiti.
Colourful scenes featuring birds, fish and flowers have been painted on either side of the two piers underneath Beverley Beck Bridge, a site which has become a hotspot for unwanted graffiti.
The four murals also feature silhouettes of people, together with an image of the Syntan, the historic barge on Beverley Beck which celebrates its 75th anniversary this year.
