Apparently there was a problem of drivers gaining access to Halifax Road via Rydings Drive, presumably to avoid a queue. They were probably illegally 'rat-running' from Brookfoot via Brighouse Wood Lane. The closure has been made using vicious-looking concrete pyramids, perhaps to allow access by fire engines.
