Chorley residents told to leave bins out if they aren't collected due to the 'freezing weather'

Chorley residents are being advised to leave their bins out for collection if they haven't been emptied today.

Heavy snow hit the borough overnight, which has led to significant delays across Chorley for motorists.

No details of the affected areas have been released yet.
