The hill has been treated tonight by Jarrod and Mick, our grateful thanks to them. Hopefully that’s all for a while. Anne Mayes

it’s Matt and Colin that we have to thank tonight for going out in the strong winds to grit the hill. Anne Mayes

Highways tell me that they’re treating the Secondary Routes this afternoon – remember that they only go up to the bus stop- so the Team will not be going out tonight. There’s a snow and ice warning out until 11am on Friday. Anne Mayes

We have Nick and Nige to thank tonight for going out to grit the hill. A very cold night to have to go out, we’re very grateful to them. Anne Mayes

Andy and Dom have been out on a very cold night to grit the hill so thank you to both of them, it’s chilly work! In view of the forecast prolonged freeze, Highways will be doing the Secondary Routes at some point in the morning. Anne Mayes

Andy and Nick have been out tonight to grit the hill so thank you to both of them and a welcome to Nick who’s just joined the Team – glad to have you! Anne Mayes

The Team has been out for the 5th night in a row, hopefully a chance for a rest after this. Tonight Matt and Colin were out to grit the hill and we thank them both. Anne Mayes

Immense gratitude to Jarrod and Andy who’ve ventured out in this freezing weather to grit the hill. We’re forecast a deep frost so please take it very carefully and bear in mind that, in places, the run off is such that there will be no grit left. Anne Mayes

Andy and Nige have been out tonight to do the hill, thank you to both of them. There was still a fair covering of grit at the top from the Secondary Route gritting earlier but the lower half is very wet and despite being gritted now is likely to be tricky still as it continues to freeze. Anne Mayes

Jarrod and Dave have been out tonight to do the hill, thank you to both of them. It’s very wet still with a lot of run off, but there are Met Office snow and ice yellow warnings out so again, take it carefully the grit may get washed off in places.
The Secondary Routes are supposed to be being done tomorrow morning which should help. Anne Mayes
