jgharston Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Does anybody know if the city centre job centres are open? It's taken me half an hour to dig my way out of the house, all their phone numbers say "due to difficulties we can't answer" and there's nothing on any websites.

Guest makapaka Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Gritted the main routes and secondary roads as per normal, not made an exception for themselves. Have they not done that? Is the road where the ambulance got stuck a priority 2 route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightrider Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Have they not done that? Is the road where the ambulance got stuck a priority 2 route? Yes that is what people appear to be claiming - that routes they are supposed to deal with, were not dealt with. I don't believe the ambulance in on one such route though.

I don't believe the ambulance in on one such route though. I haven’t heard that. The tweet posted suggested that amey were clearing their work areas at the expense of other areas which had led to an ambulance being stuck. But that’s not true after all. They cleared the routes they are scheduled to and also their own work areas. An ambulance got stuck on a route that was never down to be gritted. Usual non story.

Someone posted on this thread on p16 that a main road route, that is usually gritted, was not gritted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm timing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kal el Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I work at a nursing home in Burnegreave. whilst walking up the road to work I noticed that the road wasn't gritted/cleared but the one nearest to it was. I know its a side street. when I arrived at work I saw an ambulance struggling to drive up the road. Myself and 4 of my colleagues pushed the ambulance to the top of the road and then we gritted the entire street so other ambulances could gain access. The SCC know that there is a nursing home on this road so why wasn't it gritted/cleared. This is putting people at risk. what really upset us was the fact that the locals were stood in their windows watching us grit this road in freezing conditions.
