Footpaths are becoming increasing slippery where the snow has turned to ice and I used the last of my own to put some grit on the pavement at the corner of Leylands Road with Mill Road, where a steep slope makes it dangerous, as well as the slope on the Dunstall Farm Road corner with St Mary’s Road. I also reported the grit box on the Bumpy Bridge as empty – not sure it was ever filled but none has been used on the bridge itself which is quite slippery. Lets hope the thaw due at the weekend comes shortly.
