Getting Ready For Winter

The Government has just released its latest Winter Readiness Report based on figures gathered earlier this year from local councils, who were asked how prepared they were for another winter onslaught. Thankfully the latest research by those looking after our highways shows a number of ways in which councils, including West Sussex, are better prepared than ever to help us through the rigours of winter by using extra salt, new gritters, more salt bins, snow wardens and Gritter Twitter.

Read more about how councils are preparing themselves to help you on the Local Government Association website, or read the Winter Readiness Report for 2011/12.
