Winter roads

Weather forecast and road treatment monitoring. Updated daily before 2pm covering any planned action for that afternoon, overnight and through the next morning.

Winter treatment service update - 16/12/2025

Scattered heavy showers in western areas this afternoon, but drier further east.

Clear periods and showers will continue this evening and the first half of tonight, with road surface temperatures falling below zero in places to bring the risk of icy patches.

Confidence is low regarding the extent of any clear spells early tonight, however. Cloud and rain will move in from the west later tonight, prompting road surface temperatures to recover.

Further rain tomorrow morning.

Localised winter action planned in advanced of winter hazards.
