No gritters been out in Thingwall. Main roads pretty bad. Had to dig one car out tonight which slid off the road. (well, I didn't but neighbours did).

I saw a gritter out around 7pm last night around wallasey village
Just playing devils advocate here, but please remember that gritting lorries are also vehicles subject to the same risks as other road vehicles (ie lack of visibility for driver, skidding and sliding etc) so the local authority have now (in this time of litigious ness) got to asses wether the risk to the driver is too great?
Also remember that the salt doesn't work that well if snow falls on top of it, and relies on vehicles driving over the salt to crush and further spread it
