Gritting, snow and ice

Gritting

Where do we grit?

We grit strategic routes continuously during winter weather conditions to keep our network open and to keep the city moving. You can see which roads we grit and also track where our gritter crews are in real time.

Where's my gritter?

Where is my nearest grit bin?

Hundreds of grit bins are available across the city on selected roads. Find your nearest grit bin here

You can use the grit to treat local roads and pavements in the vicinity of the grit bin, but using this grit for your own property or personal use is illegal, and you would be liable to prosecution.
