3.6 Footway Routes for Post Treatment

3.6.1 The following footways will be treated if it is forecast that ice or snow is likely to be present on road surfaces, with temperatures forecast to remain below zero over a prolonged period:

Priority 2 – Main access routes to town and village centres, special needs of disabled people or older people where critical footway access is required. (Residential homes etc.). Known problem areas including significant gradients. Exposed areas and other topological areas.

It is not possible with the resources to treat all of the footways. Ayrshire Roads Alliance encourages self-help through the placing of Community grit bins and other grit bins throughout the roads network and when requested, resources to community groups.
