A FEASIBILITY study looking at what could be done to improve safety at a notorious Skipton road junction and which could result in a new roundabout is underway. County council highways engineers closed the right Embsay and Easby turn off the A65/A59 bypass last year as a trial and have now made it permanent. Drivers heading from the direction of Skipton along the bypass towards Harrogate have to go to the roundabout at Skibeden and double back on themselves if they want to make the turn onto the A6131. They are now carrying out a feasibility study that could result in a new roundabout at the junction, which has seen a number of fatal accidents in recent years.
