Motorists are respecting the difficult road conditions and driving with care on the county’s principle roads, which have been kept open by gritting teams, who were out at 12.30am and 4am this morning. Herefordshire Council and its contractor Amey Herefordshire are focusing on treating the 600 miles of A and B roads and managing road salt supplies - but much of the county’s 2,500 miles of minor roads remain icy and hazardous.
Snow showers started at midnight and have been persistent on times across the county. Motorists are advised to check local road and weather conditions before making the decision to drive. Visit the council’s website on www.herefordshire.gov.uk and look in the spotlight on the home page to access information on which roads will have been gritted.
Don’t get caught out even on short journeys. If you have to travel, make sure you take plenty of warm clothing, food and hot drinks.
The county’s emergency services along, with Herefordshire Council and NHS Herefordshire, reviewed together the situation over the weekend to ensure key services are maintained and communities supported throughout the spell of very cold weather.
The West Midlands Ambulance Service warns that people should take care to avoid the risk of slips, trips and falls if they have to venture out on foot.
NHS services remain under pressure and NHS Herefordshire is urging people to only use 999 if a situation is life-threatening. Anyone requiring medical treatment should consider using parts of the NHS other than Accident and Emergency and the 999 service. People can get advice on their condition from their local pharmacist or GP and should also consider calling NHS Direct on 0845 46 47 or visiting it on-line at http://www.nhs.uk/.
While social services are doing their best to ensure elderly and vulnerable people are looked after, residents are asked please to check on their older neighbours as many may be in need of basic supplies.
