West and South Yorkshire's motorways have all had problems during this morning's rush hour due to four seperate incidents; two on the M62, plus one each on the M1 and M18.

Starting with the M1. A lane is closed northbound because of a broken down lorry and delays begin at J38 for Haigh.

It's an improving picture elsewhere though, including on the M62.

It was completely closed eastbound due to a collision between J24 and J25 but it has fully reopened and delays still tail back to J22 (Rishworth Moor):

It's better news westbound on the M62 in same stretch too, following an earlier accident, with delays easing as the rush hour begins to ease.

In South Yorkshire two lanes were closed on the M18 near the M1 interchange but the Highways Agency have now informed us that all lanes are now re-open:

Two weeks on from the Grenfell tower block fire council across Yorkshire are investigating local blocks to ensure the cladding on those buildings is safe for residents.

According to the Wentworth and Dearne MP John Healey, who is Labour's shadow housing minister, these tests are not being conducted quickly enough.

However, retired safety officer Bob Addenbrook from Sheffield, believes it's a big job to carry out these tests on cladding across the country:

It started with one Tweet about a unique item on a York café menu and by the end of the day a post about the Corbyn sandwich had been liked and retweeted more than a thousand times.

If you see animals pairing up, try not to panic!

Very slow traffic due to an earlier accident and oil spillage, on M62 Eastbound between J24 A629 (Ainley Top) and J25 A644 (Brighouse), congestion on M62 to J22 A672 (Rishworth Moor).

The road was reopened at about 08:45.

Routes into Ripponden, Huddersfield and Brighouse are still looking heavy. Contracters are picking up the remaining cones.

The Federation for Small Businesses in South Yorkshire has held its first Anglo-Polish conference to help promote the links between the two countries after Brexit.

Cutlers Hall in Sheffield was the venue for the meeting and Polish entrepreneurs who are based locally attended to network and share their views on what business might look like in the future:

The organiser of the conference was Marek Niedzwiedz, who told me just how important the link between the UK and Poland is for business:

The eastbound side of the M62 is currently closed in West Yorkshire between J24 (Ainley Top) and J25 (Brighouse) due to a collision involoving a car and two lorries. The delays begin at J22.

The Highways Agency has issued the following update:

There is a signed diversion, but traffic leaving the motorway to take that route is very heavy:

Commuters are also taking to social media to report that all surrounding routes are struggling to cope with the additional demand.

There are severe delays on the westbound carriageway also in the same stretch between J25 and J24, as a separate accident has closed the inside lane:

Families of the 96 Hillsborough victims will find out later if anyone will face criminal charges over the 1989 disaster.

The Crown Prosecution Service is due to make an announcement at about 11:30 this morning.

Prosecutors have been considering files on 23 individuals and organisations connected with the tragedy since January this year.

Steve Kelly, who lost his brother Michael, says it's going to be an emotional day:

There are big delays on the M62 in West Yorkshire this morning following a serious collision involving a car and two lorries.

An oil spillage and debris is scattered across three lanes, following the smash at around 05:30.

The motorway is shut eastbound between J24 A629 (Ainley Top) and J25 A644 (Brighouse).

The road is expected to remain closed for several hours through the morning rush hour while clean-up of the carriageway takes place.

It's hoped the road will re-open at about 09:00. In the meantime diversions are in place.

People living in three blocks of flats in West Yorkshire will meet the fire brigade later to discuss their worries over cladding on the buildings.

It follows the fire at Grenfell Tower in London in which at least 79 people died and comes as it was revealed cladding from 95 towers in 32 local authority areas in England had failed fire safety test.

The properties at Mixenden in Halifax are all managed by Together Housing.

Richard Burnside lives on the 15th floor of Wheatley Court and says he's looking for reassurances:

Outbreaks of rain, heavy at times, especially over the hills will give a decidedly wet day.

Here's my full forecast:

We've got guide dogs for the blind, but how about guide horses?

A Northallerton woman is training up a miniature horse to help visually impaired people.

Digby is a seven-week-old miniature horse being trained to be a guide horse.

Owner Katy Smith, from Northallerton, North Yorkshire, says horses do have the intelligence to be trained to support people with disabilities or a visual impairment:

The A64 between York and Malton could be a dual carriageway by 2023.

Highways England says their preferred option is to upgrade the stretch of the road, which could mean scrapping plans to build a flyover at the Hopgrove roundabout in York.

Businesses, councillors and MP's have campaigned for years to get the road upgraded and concerns about safety have been raised again this week, after another two pedestrians were killed trying to cross the road late at night.

More work needs to be done before being approved, but Thirsk and Malton Conservative MP Kevin Hollinrake says dualling the road will make a difference to many people:

The Princess Royal will officially open Bradford Royal Infirmary's new £28m wing and concourse later.

Princess Anne will tour a new children's ward, a dementia-friendly area and a state-of-the-art intensive care unit.

Doctor Simon Frazer is a consultant pediatrician who's worked on the expansion for the last 7-years.

He says he's delighted with the new facilities:

Princess Anne will also officially open the bars, restaurants and shops at Sunbridge Wells in Bradford.

The network of Victorian tunnels opened to the public last year, after going through a £2m transformation.

M62 Eastbound closed with queueing traffic due to oil spillage and accident involving two lorries and a car between J24 A629 (Ainley Top) and J25 A644 (Brighouse)

There is congestion to J22 A672 (Rishworth Moor).

The road is likely to remain closed through morning rush hour.

Outbreaks of rain, heavy at times, especially over the hills will give a decidedly wet day.

Also feeling cool as windy conditions develop, especially along the coast and across high ground.

The wet and windy conditions will continue overnight, although the rain may become lighter and more intermittent in the early hours with winds moderating.

A decision on whether individuals and organisations will face criminal charges over the Hillsborough disaster will be announced later.

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) will reveal its intentions at a meeting with victims' relatives at 11:00 this morning.

Ninety-six football fans were fatally injured in the 1989 stadium disaster.

Margaret Aspinall, whose 18-year-old son died, said: "Hopefully this is the journey to the end, completely, of Hillsborough."

Last year, new inquests into the disaster in Sheffield concluded the fans had been unlawfully killed.

In January, files of evidence relating to 23 suspects were referred to the CPS to decide whether charges should be brought.

Hello and welcome to BBC Local Live in Yorkshire on Wednesday 28 June 2017.

We'll be with you throughout the day with all the latest news, sport, travel and weather updates.

I'm sure we'll hear plenty about the rain today, so rather than start with a wet vista, I thought this cracking BBC Weather Watcher pic of a sun halo over Sheffield, would provide a more optimistic start to the day.
