"Household Waste Recycling Centres may suffer delayed openings whilst staff clear snow and treat slippy surfaces. "

The Council advised that whilst road users should be careful on the roads, most should be passable.

"Many roads are snow covered but are passable with care, the roads on the precautionary routes have been treated twice and gritters will remain out until roads are clear.

"We have opened our salt store in Mytholmroyd to reduce the reload times for our upper valley gritters and have brought in an additional gritter and 5 tractor ploughs to assist the 21 front line gritters."
