Rushden's household recycling centre in Northampton Road has been closed due to traffic problems on surrounding roads.

The county's tips only re-opened last week, with queues of traffic reported at several sites on the first day.

But the number of people trying to visit the Rushden site today (Wednesday) has led to its temporary closure.

A tweet from Northants County Council said: "Rushden Household Waste Recycling Centre as been temporarily closed due to a high volume of traffic on the approach roads.

"We will update the website when it has been re-opened."

Rushden's tip is usually open Wednesday to Sunday from 10am to 6pm.
