Salt Spreader Leeds
Leeds City Council aim to keep the most important roads and some major foot fall areas in Leeds safe and as free as possible from wintry hazards.
To do this they spread salt and grit to prevent ice and snow forming. If snow settles they use ploughs to help keep the roads clear.
The main salt spreading routes include all the main roads, most other busy roads, most bus routes as well as access to hospitals and emergency services. These are always salted when any wintry hazards are forecast and get priority attention during prolonged wintry weather.
If wintry conditions persist and they have treated these roads then they will begin to treat the other roads. They aim to treat footpaths and paved areas if there is snow or frost over a longer period, however this is not guaranteed
Because it's impossible for the gritters to spread salt on every road in Leeds the City Council provide salt bins on steep roads or busy footpaths to help people clear ice and snow themselves if necessary.
With this in mind make light work of icy Newcastle pavements and car parks when you choose any manual or towable salt spreader from the Heyn range. Our salt spreaders feature large wheels which make them ideal for both rough and smooth terrains. Frames are made from corrosion resistant materials meaning our salt spreaders are durable. Each spreader has an adjustable flow rate system making spreading easy and minimising wastage of rock salt.
