Gritters are out this weekend

If the forecasters are correct, Telford could be blanketed in snow again this weekend.

A orange weather warning has been issued for the Midlands and Wales, which means Severe snow and ice is possible from Saturday evening through to Sunday afternoon.

Temperatures are predicted to be as low as -1deg C and snow could reach 10-13cm in depth.

Telford & Wrekin Council gritters will be out although they warn that spreading salt on the road is only the start of the de-icing process. Movement of salt by traffic is essential to complete the treatment.

Telford’s army of Snow Warden volunteers have been put on stand-by to help clear paths.
