Winter Service FAQs
Winter can bring tricky road conditions. With a small workforce and miles of rural roads to cover, we take a prioritised approach to treating our roads for ice and snow. Full details are available on our Winter Service Plan page but here are some of the most commonly received questions.

Why don’t you grit my cul-de-sac?
(Other road gritting queries)
We aim to treat all roads but must do so on a priority basis.
Gritting a cul-de-sac wouldn’t have any benefit to the wider network as it only serves the houses in that cul-de-sac.
This means they have a far lower priority and therefore may remain untreated during poor weather conditions until resources are available.
