I think that Derbyshire County Council are pushing their luck with their idea of cutting winter maintenance. After two years when they lost the plot with thousands unable to move about freely and Accident and Emergency Units cracking under the strain. They now want to cut salting and gritting even further. Businesses lost an estimated £5 million pounds per day during the worst of last Winter. But that doesn't matter to Tory Derbyshire. What they intend to do now is to pass costs of disruption on to the public and local businesses, who will pay many times over the amount the Council will save, in extra accidents and inconvenience. Derbyshire's daftest idea yet.
