NEW contractors will be appointed to finish a roundabout in Lepton.

Work halted when the original builder went into administration last December.

Kirklees Council says it plans to appoint another firm to finish the Wakefield Road roundabout - for a Wimpey housing development at the former Elliot Brickworks quarry.

A council spokes- woman said: "We will appoint new contractors as soon as possible to finish the scheme."

Remaining work would take about three months.
