Roadworks at Bagdale got under way last week too, which involves replacing stonework and railings between the mini-roundabout at the bottom of Chubb Hill, working towards the town centre and the junction with Spring Hill.
County Cllr Joe Plant, who represents Whitby' s Streonshalh division, said of the double roadworks: "We feel that making the most of the quieter months before the warmer weather comes around is the best option."
