    If you're making a journey on the rails in Yorkshire this Monday morning, most services appear to be generally running on time.

    However, flooding on the railway at Snaith in East Yorkshire means all lines through the station are blocked, according to National Rail Enquiries, external.

    As a result, trains will not run between Knottingley and Goole.

    Disruption is expected to continue until at least the end of the day on Saturday 14 March, with three daily bus replacement services running instead (Monday-Saturday). More details here, external.

    It was confirmed yesterday that a Bradford resident became infected while in Italy and two people from Leeds became infected while in Iran.

    They're among 12 more people in England and one in Scotland to have tested positive for coronavirus over the weekend, taking the total number of UK cases to 36.

    Leeds City Council and Bradford Council both say they are working closely with health authorities and the risk to the public remains low.

    Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who said the virus outbreak was now a top priority, will chair a meeting of the government's Cobra emergency committee today.
