Gritting of Roads

You would expect the relevant information to be published on the CBC web site, so you go to:

http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/advice-and-benefits/winter-weather/roads-gritting.aspx

Then you find that although the page is headed 2010 / 2011 the leaflet and map are both for 2009/2010.

It is not easy to identify the roads from the thick red lines on the map, but it appears that these are the gritted roads as of 2009/2010 :

A6001 from Langford / Hitchin Street to Teal Road / Teal Road / St Andrews Street / Shortmead Street / Hill Lane.
Saxon Drive from London Road  / Dunton Lane out through Dunton
London Road / High Street to Shortmead Street
Sun Street / St Johns Street / Potton Road / B1040 to Potton.

Whilst looking for something else on the CBC web site the other day, I came across a document that does not appear to have a link from a CBC web page.

I don't know the status of this document which is entitled, Bedfordshire Highways, Winter Service Policy & Operational Plan, 2010 - 2011. The list of roads starts at page 23 and goes onto page 35 but some of the other pages also make interesting reading.

The link is:
