WINTER weather is well and truly here… as council gritters are being dispatched on their first run of winter 2021/22 this evening.
Four routes will be treated in Donegal from 8pm:
- 01: National Primary North
- 02: National Primary Central
- 09: Cill Ulta East
- 12: Binswilly
See Donegal County Council’s map HERE for gritting routes
Tonight will be chilly with a risk of frost as temperatures drop to lows of 1C in northern counties. Most areas will be dry tonight under broken cloud. Some mist and fog will develop with just light variable breezes.
An additional 125km of roads in Donegal will be included in the gritting programme this winter. The 2021/2022 Winter Maintenance season began on Monday 11th of October 2021 and will end on 30th of April 2022.
