Stands at Lancaster Bus Station have now fully reopened after emergency drain repairs were completed.

The bus company Stagecoach Cumbria and North Lancashire had closed stands 12 to 20 - affecting dozens of daily bus routes - due to a collapsed drain outside.

That work has now been completed, earlier than was first anticipated, meaning all services in and out of the bus station have returned to normal.

In a short statement, a spokesperson for the company said: ''We are pleased to announce Lancaster Bus Station has now fully reopened.

''All services will now return to normal route.''
