Salt bins at the side of the road

KHS Salting vehicleThe salt bins are there to help all road users, including pedestrians. You may use the salt to treat ice and snow on small areas of the road or pathways.

It is not for use on private drives or paths.

If you need to buy salt to treat ice on your driveway or business premises, you can buy it from builders' merchants and DIY stores.

Salt bins will be refilled using a mixture of sharp sand or other grit material and salt. In the event of severe weather further refills will be carried out as time and resources permit.
