A FLOOD warning remains in place in one area of the Bradford district today, while others have lifted, as the council leader praised the efforts of teams during yesterday’s flooding. Although a flood warning remains for the River Aire at Cross Hills, those at Cottingley and Shipley and the Amber Warning for rain across the district have now been lifted. Officers from Bradford Council were out since the early hours of yesterday morning working with partners from West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service, the Police and residents and volunteers. The five Community Emergency Groups, set up at flooding hotspots across the district, in the wake of the Boxing Day Floods in 2015, put in place flood defences from 6.30am yesterday, connecting with and reassuring residents, as well as monitoring river levels and reporting back flooding issues in their areas allowing the Council to focus resources to where they were needed the most.
