With another cold spell setting in across the county for the next few days, Hampshire County Council is reassuring residents that roads are being salted to keep motorists across the county moving.

But motorists are reminded to take extra care and always drive according to the weather conditions - even on roads that have been treated with salt.

And communities can use salt from one of the thousands of blue or yellow bins across Hampshire for public roads and pavements.

This can help to ‘join up’ salting from the main roads with smaller access roads and pavements.

People can check slat bin locations, or report if a salt bin needs refilling, via the County Council’s website page https://www.hants.gov.uk/transport/roadmaintenance/severeweather
