Snow clearance involves putting emergency plans into action. It includes the mobilisation of additional resources. The aim is to clear roads affected in the shortest time possible.
Snow ploughing starts when conditions dictate. Our aim is to clear all priority roads of snow, as soon as conditions permit. Clearance work will continue as necessary.
In certain extreme conditions it may be necessary to spread a mixture of salt and grit to achieve traction, particularly in the case of compacted snow.
