A busy night and early morning start for gritting teams as icy snap continues

Crews will be on the road as early as 5am to try and make Donegal's roads safer

Gritters in action tonight

Road gritters are in action tonight and tomorrow morning

Donegal gritting crews will have a busy night ahead as they endeavour to keep roads as safe as possible for motorists.

All the designated routes will be gritted from 4pm on Monday afternoon.

And with the current weather warning remaining in place, crews will be out from 5am on Tuesday.

Motorists are advised to drive with care and to assume that no roads are ice free, including those that are gritted. Conditions can change quickly and the salt that helps keep the ice at bay can be washed away.
