Isle of Anglesey County Council

Storm Eunice to impact Council services tomorrow

All non-essential County Council sites will also be closed tomorrow (Friday, 18 February) in order to safeguard staff and members of the public.

The authority’s office-based staff have also been advised to work from home if they can with Storm Eunice expected to bring severe disruption to Anglesey and North Wales.

The advice from emergency services is to avoid all but essential travel; and a full closure of Britannia Bridge is also anticipated as a result of winds in excess of 70mph during the course of the day.

Council buildings and services not available to the public tomorrow include:

  • County Offices, Cyswllt Môn, Business Centre and other office buildings
  • leisure centres
  • libraries, Oriel Môn and Anglesey Archives
  • recycling centres
  • all Friday recycling and food waste collections will be suspended until the next scheduled collection

Residents are urged not put their trolley-box and mini food waste bins out for collection. You will be able to place any excess recycling in clear plastic bags on your next scheduled collection. We apologise for the inconvenience.

A decision has already been taken to close Anglesey schools and provide pupils with distance learning tomorrow.

We will also be posting any relevant updates on our social media sites (Facebook @ioacc and Twitter @angleseycouncil).
