TWO recycling centres have been temporarily closed due to the snowy conditions.
Frizington and Millom's sites, run by Cumbria County Council, both have long access roads, which are deemed too hazardous to be used by the public.
Across the region, household waste recycling centres have been opening later than usual, usually by 10am, and closing early.
The public is advised to check for opening hours on http://www.cumbria.gov.uk/planning-environment/wastemanagement/ servicesincumbria/hwrcs/hwrc.asp or by contacting 01228 606060 before visiting their local centre.
