New salt bin required.

Reported via desktop in the Salt / Grit Bins - New category anonymously at 13:02, Mon 25 March 2024

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14142077.

Please supply a new salt bin to location indicated on the map. We used to get salted dumped on the verge until the new policy of only supplying to salt bins occurred. During icy times in winter this bit of road becomes almost impassible and sight-seers regularly get stuck and block the road. This has previously been reported and marked as complete, but no bin has been supplied. Many thanks.

  • This issue is not resolved and the recent weather has prooved the need for a salt bin due to a stranded car that needed towing by a 4x4 to clear the road.

    Issue reported over two years ago and no action taken even though there is a problem.

    Please respond.

  • Please update on progress urgently. We need a salt bin now with the bad weather. No snow in Oswestry but lane is snow and iced over causing problems for 2wd cars.
