Reporting poor road conditions

Our winter maintenance request form can be used to request road or pavement gritting, snow clearance, and grit bins and heaps, but please be aware that we treat roads and pavements in a strict order of priority e.g. routes to hospitals. Unless there is an emergency situation it is highly unlikely that non priority roads and pathways will be treated. 

Additional grit bins and heaps are not ordinarily supplied due to the limited capacity to refill these but we may be able to place grit heaps in isolated rural locations (steep hills and bends) which become problematic.
