What we do:
- We monitor for certain conditions and act in accordance with standing guidance
May do:
- We cannot clear snow on request as resources are deployed to grit per standing guidance, insurance advice and practice.
- Where people have identified a risk to themselves they are best advised to stay put or seek assistance from family or neighbours.
- In the event of having completed all gritting, only then can snow clearance be considered but is very unlikely to be achievable.
