Highland Council appreciates its winter maintenance crews for their hard work in keeping Caithness roads clear during harsh weather conditions
Caithness: Highland Council is giving a big shout-out to its winter maintenance teams. These folks have been working hard to keep the roads clear during some pretty rough weather.
With the Met Office warning of snow and sleet, things have been tricky. Cllr Gowans, the council’s vice convener, expressed gratitude for the crews’ efforts. He said they’ve been doing their best to keep the roads moving.
Imagine being out there in the cold, before the sun even comes up, clearing snow while most of us are cozy at home. It’s no easy task, and they deserve all the thanks for their hard work.
The council has a solid plan for gritting roads, and you can check out their priority route maps online. Plus, they offer help to communities wanting to clear snow and ice from footpaths.
