This was a decision taken on 28/10/2026 by Full Council numbered WTCM965.
Status: Completed
Vote Type: Standard
Proposer: Cllr Revd William Rowell
Seconder: Cllr Morag Bailey
Decision:
The Council considered a motion concerning the removal of Red Bank from Powys County Council's preventative winter gritting programme.
Members expressed concern about the decision, particularly given the steep gradient of the road and the potential difficulties for motorists during icy or snowy conditions. It was felt that the characteristics of the road and the safety implications warranted further consideration by Powys County Council.
Members discussed the importance of preventative gritting and the potential consequences of removing the road from the programme.
RESOLVED
To amend the proposed motion to include Borfa Green alongside Red Bank.
