Description: Improving the way Derbyshire's roads are gritted - we want your views! Over the past two winters we've faced some of the worst weather we've ever seen. Hopefully the weather this winter will not be as bad, but before winter takes hold Derbyshire County Council are asking for your views on the way they plan to decide which roads get gritted and when. Look at an online map of the three catagories of roads and give your views about the types of road you think should be covered in each of them.
