Yorkshire Water are carrying out repairs to a water main today, which has meant public transport will struggle to service the area as well.

Stagecoach Supertram announced blue and yellow route trams would be unable to operate between Shalesmoor and Malin Bridge and Middlewood.

Yorkshire Water did not offer a timetable for the repair in the message sent to residents.
