Bridford, Devon

Temperature dropping this evening and the road is damp so Andy B and Andy H have been out to grit again. Our thanks to them for that and also moving the new delivery under cover, it’s essential that we keep it dry. Fortunately temps rise again tomorrow morning and look that way for a while. Anne

Another night of below zero temperatures with tomorrow morning looking very cold. Tonight our grateful thanks go to James and David, going out in the dark after work to grit the hill for us. Hopefully a bit of a break now! Anne

Forecast for pretty low temperatures tonight and first thing tomorrow morning. Our very grateful thanks go to the two Andy’s who’ve been out to treat the hill. Still best to be cautious, you may have seen that the B3212 has been closed all day at Farrant’s Hill due to ice and that’s on the Primary Gritting Route so would have been treated. Anne

Another cold and icy night and yet again the volunteer Snow Team has been out to grit the hill, trying to keep us all safe while using it. This time our thanks go to Dom and Matt who went out after work to do it. Anne Mayes

It looks as if it might be a busy week, the Team will do their best but availability is still low, we really could do with more volunteers, if you can help please let the Clerk know. Anne Mayes

It appears that the hill was gritted at lunchtime, but not by us! I presume that this was a Secondary Route gritting, they never tell me if they are doing it but there was plenty to see coming up just after 2pm. Anne Mayes

Our thanks to Andy H and Nige, again, for gritting the hill for us this evening. We do still need more volunteers as those we have are not always available and we can’t rely on the same people every time.
Don’t forget though that, after all the rain we’ve had, the possibility of run off washing the salt away is high and hence there could well be patches of black ice. Anne Mayes
