THE hot temperatures are currently causing problems for the town’s pools.

Two pools – Bush Fair and Staple Tye – are currently closed due to low chlorine levels caused by the hot weather and the volume of people using them. The Council is working to get the chlorine levels up so both can reopen.

The Potter Street Splash Park will be closed this weekend as the pump needs replacing.

The Council is advising residents to always check its website before making their way to the paddling pools. The latest information can be found at www.harlow.gov.uk/paddling-pools
