BRADFORD Council has reminded voters that one of its polling stations, formerly at Little Lane Church, has moved locations.

Some BD9 residents falsely believed the polling station was closed when it had in fact moved to Toller Youth Cafe on Duckworth Lane.

One resident stood outside the church with the polling station's confused security guard at 7.15am.

The voter said: "He's waiting for them to open as well."

But the authority said poll cards confirmed the location to all electors in the BD9 postcode as well as a message alerting them to its new location.

A spokesperson for Bradford Council said: “All of our polling stations were open at 7am.  The voter went to the wrong location.

"Little Lane church is no longer a polling station and has been replaced by a polling station at Toller Youth Café.  Poll cards to all electors confirmed the location and a message alerting them to the new location.”
