WINTER CONDITIONS- A MESSAGE FROM YOUR LABOUR COUNCILLORS

We would just like to let you know that Manchester City Council have enough stocks of salt to grit the primary routes and there are teams of Street Scene Operatives out shovelling snow in District Centres.

Prioritised gritting outside Sheltered Housing and Childrens Centres has taken place.

Side roads can't be done as the Councils eight gritters are working flat out on primary routes and also the grit salt needs to be churned into the ice by car tyre use or heavy footfall.

Attempts are being made by council staff to telephone vulnerable elderly residents to check they are OK and would urge all residents to keep any eye on their neighbours in this bad weather.
