Medical emergency and fire shut two waste recycling centres in Louth and Market Rasen

Two recycling centres were shut this afternoon - due to a medical emergency and fire.

The two sites, at Market Rasen and Louth, have just announced they have reopened within the last 10 minutes.

An hour ago Lincolnshire County Council announced the centre at Market Rasen was closed ‘whilst staff deal with a medical emergency on site’.

Meanwhile an incident at Louth also caused that to temporarily shut ‘due to a fire’.
