Work on a £150,000 sewer flood alleviation scheme in Bailiff Bridge, West Yorkshire is now complete.
The scheme, which has finished two weeks ahead of schedule, was carried out by Mott MacDonald Bentley on West Street over a seven-week period.
Works included installing a new sewer using auger boring. The method means two holes are dug and the new pipe is tunnelled under the ground from one pit to the other.
The scheme is part of Yorkshire Water's £3.8 billion investment programme between 2015 and 2020.
Jonathan LeMoine, Project Manager for Yorkshire Water said: "We appreciate that this scheme was disruptive to residents and road-users but we had no other option if our contractors were to work quickly and safely.
"We'd like to thank anyone affected by the roadworks for their patience throughout this essential project."
