Thurrock Council's scheduled clean-up in Grays High Street has been cancelled. A statement from the authority says: "The clean-up operation scheduled to take place in Grays High Street between 10am and 2pm on Friday 18 February has been rescheduled because of the severe weather warning in place for the South of England.

"Council officers taking part will instead be on stand-by to deal with any issues that arise as a result of Storm Eunice."
