Local councillor David Martin has arranged for provision of a new grit bin on Minster Way. The new bin at the top end of the loop is fully stocked for winter.

Two local residents who volunteered to spread grit in poor weather have been issued shovels. This follows from the successful pilot of the snow warden trial by the Liberal Democrat council elsewhere in the city.

Cllr Martin funded the bin, grit and shovels from his local initiative allowance which has already funded a dozen small projects across Bathwick. Residents with ideas for small interventions are invited to contact their Liberal Democrat councillors Nicholas Coombes and David Martin with suggestions.
