HEAVY snow this morning has led to treacherous road conditions and over 160 emergency school closures.

Although the snow is only meant to last until late morning, it has already played havoc on rush hour traffic, even on main roads, with slow, heavy traffic reported on all main routes.

Police have warned people not to take to the roads unless absolutely necessary.

Major traffic delays have been reported on Leeds Road in Shipley and the Bingley Bypass.

Traffic from Queensbury into Bradford, and on Canal Road near Tesco has been described as "stationary," and there are severe delays on Manchester Road, Mayo Avenue and the M606 because of a number of accidents, breakdowns and traffic getting stuck in the snow.

One accident on Manchester Road, near The Station Hotel, happened at 9.55am and involved two cars, one of which had gone into the central barrier on the road.

Many schools will remain shut today, with other schools opting for later starts.

Police have warned motorists to be extra cafeful on their commutes, with numerous reports of crashes across West Yorkshire

A crash has been reported on the M62 between J26 (Chainbar and J27 (Gildersome). The two vehicle crash is leading to lane closures. 

Bradford Council has just announced that today's Regulatory and Appeals Committee, which was to decide on a number of major planning applications, has been cancelled. 

The Chair, Councillor David Wharburton, made the decision because of the poor travel conditions, which could prevent members fo the public and councillors attending the meeting.

The Council has said gritters have been out all night and through the morning, and have re loaded for further gritting runs through today.

Leeds Bradford Airport has urged travellers to check the status of their flights before they head to the airport. Somne flights have been diverted to different airports or cancelled.

Bradford College has also closed.

The current (9.20am) school closures are listed below, although more may be added as the morning progresses.
