Ice and Fractures
I continue to seek answers about the gritting policy, particularly as I've just found out that West Mid had a 50% increase in fractures in A&E during the icy week in January, AND that this was a greater increase than other London hospitals. Environment Services confirmed that their priority 1 gritting on footways does not extend the length of the footway. They expect to get to Priority 2 footways within a day. I'm sorry but this did just not happen, and I am calling for a review of their gritting schedule, so that people can safely walk along busy pavements.
