Has anyone else noticed where they live if their council has cut back massively on the number of roads they grit? Maybe it is just Birmingham City Council.
During this cold snap, with icy roads every morning, they just aren't gritting the minor routes. To get to work, we take the roads in our estate - not gritted, but don't really expect them to be. Then we take the minor, but busy, routes through to the main road - these used to be gritted but the past few mornings they have been icy with white frost along the edges/middle of the road. The main roads are clear.
Traffic is crawling along because no one has any confidence in the conditions.
What's it like elsewhere in the country?
