Grit bin needed

Reported via mobile in the New Grit Bin request category by Mary Griffiths-Browne at 15:52, Wednesday 7 January 2026

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8642594.

No grit bin to service South Road and road off South Road leading to Newlands Farm.

  • The criteria for the installation of a new grit bin are points based and include the severity of slopes and bends, the category of traffic using the road, whether the highway is on a Primary 1 gritting route for roads or footways, the presence of an existing grit bin within a 200-metre radius, and footway footfall. The Highway Inspector for the area will assess the location against these criteria to determine whether a new grit bin is required.

    State changed to: Closed
