What is done about icy roads and footpaths
Council contractors inspect known problem areas around the city after heavy frosts and spread grit on icy areas. Grit covered roads can also be a hazard! Always drive carefully during frosty weather. If you notice an icy road or footpath please phone us on +64 3 546 0204 so that our contractor can be notified.
