Gritting Update – 4th January 2022

Unfortunately we don’t have a driver who is free to go out tonight to grit the hill. The Primary routes are being done twice and temps will be low but we cannot manage it. If there any others out there who have a vehicle with a tow bar we’d really welcome them to help out.

Gritting Update – Wed 10 Feb

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

Gritting Update – Sun 24 Jan

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
