Motorists are being urged to take extra care this Tuesday morning due to the risk of icy road conditions.

There are reports of very icy conditions at Mountain Top in Letterkenny.

Donegal County Council has dispatched gritters to selected routes from 6am (gritting route below).

A Status Yellow Snow/Ice Warning is in place for the entire country valid until 9am on Wednesday (26th).

Widespread showers of hail, sleet and possibly snow will cause icy road conditions.

The AA Roadwatch is advising motorists to: “Remember it takes much longer to stop a vehicle when roads are icy, so reduce speed and keep further back from whoever’s in front. Avoid any harsh acceleration or braking, and allow extra time to fully de-ice your vehicle before setting out.

The following routes will be gritted from 6AM on Tue. 25/02:

  • 01: National Primary North
  • 02: National Primary Central
  • 04: Inishowen South
  • 05: Inishowen East
  • 06: Inishowen West
  • 07: Milford South
  • 08: Milford North
  • 09: Cill Ulta East
  • 10: Cill Ulta West
  • 11: Na Rosa

  • 17: Donegal North
  • 18: Donegal South
