WEATHER DISRUPTIONS TO COUNCIL SERVICES

Severe winter weather has hit a number of Thanet District Council's services, with Thanet's Gateway Plus closing earlier than usual and some of the area's public toilets closed.

Waste and recycling collections have been suspended today (Thursday 7 January). Thanet's Gateway Plus, which was due to be open until 8pm tonight, as it is every Thursday night, will now be closing at 6pm instead. It is planned that it will re-open at 9am tomorrow morning (Friday 8 January) as usual.

At present, it is planned that the council offices in Margate and the telephone switchboard will be open until their usual closing time of 5.30pm tonight and will re-open at 8.45am tomorrow morning.

However, these opening hours are subject to weather conditions, which the council will continue to monitor throughout the afternoon. Should any changes be made to opening hours of either Thanet's Gateway Plus or the council offices, we will update you.

Although most of the area's town centre public toilets have been open today, a number of toilets, mainly in parks and on beaches, have been closed today:

Minnis Gap car park, Birchington
West Bay, Westgate
St. Mildred's Bay, Westgate
Harbour Arm, Margate
Dane Park, Cliftonville
Broadstairs Harbour
Screaming Alley, Ramsgate
King George VI Park, Ramsgate
