BIN collections in Worcester have been cancelled again due to icy side roads.

Lorries were sent out this morning to collect rubbish, however, Worcester City Council has been forced to cancel them again, due to problems on side roads.

The council has reported staff falling over and the lorries struggling to make progress down smaller roads and has made the decision to prevent injuries to staff.

A city council spokesman said: "The message from us is that we expect collections to happen tomorrow, so people should put their bins out as normal and they will be collected eventually."

Residents should put their bin out on the normal day and leave it there until it is emptied.

The city council will run a Saturday morning service if required.
