Salt your own


OK, here's another challenge to local neighbourliness (in addition to learning about the defibrillator - see below)


Central Beds Council will deliver either one tonne or 1.5 tonne bags of road de-icing salt, free of charge, to any town or parish council that requests one. The Council did this for just one month last year, but this year will supply one bag each month in December, January and February if required. 
Each town or parish council will take responsibility for the salt, which can be spread by local volunteers on minor roads and pavements that are not covered by CBC gritting routes. 

So where do you think needs keeping an eye on during the icy months?
