Halifax Central Initative and the Queens Road Gym will be closed to the public today, alongside Calderdale Adult Learning Centre.

The Register Office is open as usual for customers who can get here safely. Appointments can be rearranged for those customers that are unable to attend.

Waste and Recycling services have been suspended for the day. A Council spokesperson said: "Where Waste collections are delayed due to bad weather we will always try to catch up, so please leave your bin out where it is safe to do so, trying not to block the pavement and we will get there as soon as we can, with crews planned to work all weekend.

"Any Recycling collections that have not been collected so far this week will not be revisited so could residents please take all receptacles back into their properties and we will collect on the scheduled collection day next week."
