North Yorkshire Police say a 15-20ft deep sinkhole has opened up on Stepney Road in Scarborough.
As a result, the A170 is partially closed between Stepney Drive roundabout and Seamer Moor Lane.
North Yorkshire Police say:
Please be aware that part of Stepney Road in #Scarborough is currently closed due to a large sinkhole.
