Product Information

The 2010 Quarmby Review on Winter Resilience recommend English highways authorities set a ‘winter resilience benchmark' for councils of 12 days/48 runs-worth of salt ahead of each gritting season (October 1 to late March 1). The Department for Transport says these recommendations should be adopted. Pull along salt spreader i.e. pulled by a small tractor unit like a ride on mower or a vehicle (useful for a school or large delivery or logistics areas) other busy roads carrying more than 1,000 vehicles per day may be included if there are difficult circumstances The Met Office provides DfI with special weather forecasts to help it make decisions about when salting is needed. Dependent solely on the weather, winter service expenditure can vary vastly, making control of budgets very difficult.

It’s always wise to keep a close eye on the weather forecasts. Rain will soon wash away all the grit before it can make any kind of impact, so be on the lookout for grey clouds before you get to work! Safety doesn’t end at the front doorin the middle of the night and on roads with fewer vehicles, as traffic is needed to turn salt into de-icing solution EcoGrit is an environmentally conscious company that would like to serve the people by offering them education, insight, “peace of mind” and the chance to make a positive difference on a monumental scale at a time when winter weather patterns are becoming more unpredictable.
