Yorkshire Water have postponed roadworks due to start on Monday on Skipton Road in Ilkley.
Yorkshire Water had been due to start major main water connection works on 11 May, which were expected to take five to six weeks.
Concerns had been raised by residents and MP Robbie Moore that the disruption would impact students at local schools due to start their exams.
