Winter road treatment

We grit roads during cold weather conditions, particularly outside hospitals, bus stops and schools. Grit bins with salt are placed at locations throughout the borough.

We will grit:

• roads that carry the most traffic, for example red routes, shopping areas  and daily bus routes
• hilly areas and where water runs onto the road
• secondary routes, for example roads that lead to bus routes.

We do not provide a dedicated snow clearance service, as levels of snowfall are not high enough.
