Latest snow update

Updated 1pm, 19 November 2024.

We update this page if we have road closures due to snow.


Check if your road is on a gritting route and when it was last gritted

On the roads

The main roads we’d closed last night have all now reopened, apart from the A6024 Holme Moss which remains closed due to the weather conditions.Weather latestWe’re expecting a dry and bright afternoon, but it will remain cold and through the night with clear skies.

Road surfaces are likely to wet and will freeze, with icy conditions. Please be vigilant and take extra care.

Gritting update

Across much of the county, our teams are already gritting and will be back on the roads at 4pm today and 4am  tomorrow morning, treating primary and secondary routes – around 1,550 miles of road.

Over the past 36 hours, we’ve used 1,000 tonnes of grit and our teams have been out consistently through the day and night to treat road surfaces.

Weather outlook

Forecasts suggest that the rest of the week and into the start of the weekend looks cold, with sleet and snow showers, ice and frost. In some areas, it will be very windy.

We will monitor the weather conditions and we'll do our very best to keep Derbyshire moving.
