Snow ploughs are operating on the A369, A38 and A370 removing accumulations of slush and snow, and further salt will be laid as part of this operation.

Roads currently closed are Totterdown Lane, Weston-super-Mare, Monks Hill, Weston super Mare and

Officers are continuing to monitor conditions of the road network and will be arranging appropriate salting/ ploughing operations as resources allow.
