@artdeco_fan @KentHighways Unfortunately we cannot treat all roads and some will need to thaw naturally.
We advise motorists to drive to the road conditions along with advice from weather warnings.

@artdeco_fan @KentHighways Hello, you can view the roads on our primary salting routes at https://t.co/RCPaUOHHfP

[Gritting Kent (Kent Highways) @GrittingKent]

Please see the advice below from the RSPCA for pet owners about washing paws after being outside where there is a chance of walking in salt.
Please note that in Kent we only use rock salt and ready-mixed brine, and no other chemicals
