More on grit bins in the West End

During the recent very wintry spell, a resident in Hillside Drive asked me if the City Council would provide a grit bin at the top end of the street. The City Engineer has now responded positively to my request as follows :

"Your constituent's request for a grit bin at the top end of Hillside Drive has been assessed by Road Maintenance and as this location meets the necessary criteria it is proposed that a grit bin be set out at a suitable location as soon as this can be arranged."

Also, at the request of residents in Pleasance Court, I have asked for a grit bin to be placed in the courtyard area - currently, the nearest grit bin is in Edward Street.
