They can also check the
Donegal Winter Gritting Map which is an interactive
map available on Donegalcoco.ie. This map is linked
to the Councils social media platforms and provides
information on routes and length of routes to be
gritted on any given night as well as an hourly
forecast feed for most areas of the county so that
users can check their local weather forecast for the
next 12 to 24 hours. It also shows locations where
sand and grit stock is available for use by the
public.
Live road conditions at a number of locations around
the county and the northwest can also be viewed via
the Councils website. Locations include N56 Gaoth
Dobhair, N15 Bundoran, N15 Lough Mourne, N15
Killygordon, N13 An Grianan Aileach, N56 Ardara, A37
Coleraine Mountain, A515 Foyle Bridge and A6
Glenshane Pass.
These resources have been developed over the last
number of years with a view to providing road users
and motorists with the necessary information to make
safe driving decisions during the winter months. |
