Gritting is done by HBC but it is LCC who say where to grit and pay for it as far as I know.
At the top of New Lane is Ossy was freezing about 7pm today and it was quite slippery.

Gritters were out our way last night. They went twice round the roundabout. But no ice on my windscreen at 6 this morning
