750 tonnes of salt used in Sheffield since last night

ARound 750 tonnes of salt has been laid in Sheffield since 6pm last night by 19 gritters. As the snow continues to fall, the gritters are focusing on roads on higher ground to ensure they remain as clear as possible.

Sheffield's Streets Ahead team is warning drivers to take extra care travelling on the roads tonight and tomorrow morning.

Temperatures are expected to fall rapidly this afternoon with a risk of ice forming on the roads and pavements. Gritters will continue to treat the roads in response to this. The weather conditions are being monitored continuously throughout the day and we will act in accordance with them. All residents and drivers are being asked to take extra care when travelling tonight and tomorrow morning and to drive to the weather conditions at all times.
