Your notification that this grit bin had been refilled was incorrect. The bin is still empty and it would be appreciated if it could be refilled as more bad weather has been forecast

Many thanks

    This bin has not been refilled and is still empty. Can this be rectified as soon as possible as the weather is forecast to deteriorate once again

    Many thanks

  • 03/02/2026 Despite two requests for this grit bin to be refilled and notifications that arrangements had been made for the bin to be refilled this has not happened and it still remains empty. Please can this bin be refilled to allow the community to help when the weather impacts our safety.

    Many thanks

  • No response to earlier emails and the bin is still empty (if it has been refilled in the last few hours then I apologise)
