Pembrokeshire residents warned of icy roads and further disruption to services

Residents are being warned of the continued potential for icy roads and pavements this morning and into today, Friday 19th January.

Temperatures will fall below zero in many parts of the county overnight and remaining below zero until mid-morning tomorrow.

Pembrokeshire County Council gritting teams have been working continuously over the past 24 hours and will be out throughout the evening and night tonight gritting the primary and secondary routes.

Untreated roads and surfaces in particular are expected to be very icy with difficult hazardous driving conditions.

Please consider if you need to travel on Friday morning or delay journeys until later on in the day.

This will aid Council gritting teams to carry out their work and reduce the number of vehicles on the roads at this time.

Please take extra care if you are out and about due to the risk of slippery services.

Council services:

Please note, all Council Day Centres will be closed on Friday.

Schools will make decisions on remaining open or closing on an individual basis, based on the conditions. Follow schools and PCC on social media for updates.

Waste and Recycling Collections:

Households that were due a collection on Thursday are reminded that Residual (grey / black bag) and AHP (absorbent hygiene product) collections will be collected on Saturday 20th and are asked to hold onto their recycling until their next collection.

The Council will endeavour to undertake waste and recycling collections as planned today (Friday) subject to an assessment this morning, however these will only take place in areas where it is safe to do so. If services are impacted PCC will be prioritising residual and AHP collections.

Households are asked to please take care in the icy conditions, not place themselves at risk and only place their containers out for collection if it is safe to do so.

Further updates will be provided tomorrow if services have been impacted.
