THE cold snap has left many side roads and pavements covered in ice.

It means many areas are difficult for driving and it is dangerous underfoot.

Snow that fell on Saturday has frozen and compacted into ice.

The council grits primary routes across the borough but it is impossible for all areas to cover, which has led to residents seeking out grit bins so they can treat areas.

Some residents have been questioning the locations of various grit bins.

The council's website sets out where they are ward by ward of the borough.

Below is the information it provides.
