Weather Watch

• Find out if and when we will be gritting your road

A 65-strong team based at the council’s Lister Road depot keep more than 480 kilometres of road clear during severe weather. 

Friday March 3

Crews have been out overnight and will continue throughout the day. More snow this morning and temperatures are set to drop later today.

We're also gritting some of the worst hit side roads by hand, bringing in staff from other areas to support.

Please be careful on the roads. We're also working through the requests for grit bin refills. You can request a grit bin refill online.
