Gritting

Worcestershire County Council (WCC) is responsible for providing a winter service on adopted public highways within the county except for motorways and trunk roads.

The purpose of the winter service is to reduce the effects of snow and ice on the roads by treating the highway with salt. The service is essential for public safety and to the national and local economy in maintaining ice free roads.
