FEWER than ten properties in the Bradford district are still without power after being hit by Storm Arwen at the end of last week.

In a bulletin Bradford Council received from Northern Powergrid, it has been reported the energy supplier has managed to restore power to almost all those affected by the power cuts caused by Storm Arwen.

They estimate there are now fewer than ten properties in the Bradford district still without power.

Northern Powergrid have also had reports of some new post codes in the Bradford district experiencing power cuts today.

The company said this is because they have had to temporarily disconnect some live lines to reconnect the damaged ones.

A spokesperson for Bradford Council said: "Our neighbourhood wardens have been out door knocking to do welfare checks in areas affected and will be back out again tomorrow."
