A FLEET of gritters will be out and about on Worcestershire roads this evening, the county council confirmed.
The gritting teams will be hitting the roads this evening as temperatures are set to drop to a minimum of -3 degrees.
Worcestershire County Council has said that gritters will be treating primary, secondary and snow plus routes from 6pm.
A spokesperson for the Council said: "Scattered snow showers have the potential to produce a slight covering of around 1cm overnight, although some higher routes towards the north and west of the county may see totals of between 1-3cm.
"Snow showers will tend to turn more sleety later in the night and through the morning with a reduced risk of any settling.
"A Winter service inspection will commence at midnight to monitor the impact of any snow".
