Winter Services

Scenes of snow and ice may look delightful but they can make driving and walking hazardous.

During the winter months the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead has a Winter Maintenance Policy and operates a gritting programme to help keep conditions as safe as possible. Please see our Winter Services web pages for further details of gritting routes and location of salt bins.
