Work is continuing on a £1.9 million water infrastructure upgrade project in West Yorkshire.

The scheme at Graincliffe reservoir near Eldwick is scheduled for completion at the end of November.

The project involves upgrading the spillways that protect the reservoir embankment from flood erosion and safely divert the excess water flows away from the site.

During a recent visit to the project site, Shipley MP Philip Davies said: "It was a pleasure to see at first hand the investment Yorkshire Water has put into our local reservoir serving local communities around Bingley to ensure reliable supply of water and to help alleviate the chances of future flooding locally.

"The workmanship is first class and this investment is brilliant news for the local community."
