    From reading replies it seems there’s been a few accidents already, probably best to avoid if you can.

    Also people, check the road works on Pontefract Rd. Check before you set off tomorrow & avoid if still there.

    Cheers. Dangerous for cars but lethal for motorbikes.
    Hope they catch the vehicle that's caused it and take it off the road.

    There is always diesel on the roads, the thing is when it gets wet thats when it becomes dangerous... When its dry you dont see it and it it isnt a problem.
    I only know as i cycle a lot
