Response by the Cabinet Member: Thank you, Councillor Brignell-Thorp, for your question regarding the provision of grit bins on the Community Treatment Routes in the Forden and Montgomery ward. With regard to the provision of grit bins, the review included provision for 100 additional bins at an estimated cost of approximately £12,000, together with approximately £28,000 for installation across the county. These bins are intended to support locations where additional winter resilience is considered necessary. In determining where to locate the new grit bins, priority has been given to roads that formed part of the previous primary treatment network but are not included within the 2026/27 precautionary treatment network. Local highway inspectors have assessed these roads to determine where additional grit bins would provide the greatest benefit, taking into account factors such as safety and risk, strategic importance, accessibility, practicality, demand and wider community benefit. With regard to the Forden and Montgomery ward, it is noted that the largest section of Community Treatment Route runs from Forden to Caerhowell. While there are currently no salt bins located along this section of route, the route was not previously included within the Council's winter treatment network. Following the review, it has now been included within the Community Treatment Network and therefore benefits from an increased level of winter service provision. Community Treatment Routes remain part of the Council's winter service network and may be treated during prolonged, severe or particularly disruptive winter weather conditions. Given the scale of the highway network, it is neither practical nor feasible to provide salt bins along the full length of every Community Treatment Route. Instead, additional bins have been targeted at locations where local assessment identified the greatest operational and community benefit. The Council will monitor the operation of the revised winter service arrangements and consider any further requirements identified through operational experience and feedback received during the winter season. If you, or any of your residents, consider that a particular location may require a salt bin, a request can be submitted to the Council for consideration via the Report a Problem with Salt Bins, Gritting or Footways service. However, all requests will need to be assessed against operational criteria and available resources. Kind Regards
Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
Caiff datganiadau eu darllen o'r cofnodion unwaith y byddan nhw wedi'u cyhoeddi.
