Our crews were out gritting all primary routes from 4am this morning following another cold night.
Issues with poor parking at Winnats Pass and Rushup Edge at the weekend were dealt with by Derbyshire Police. We are still appealing to motorist to park sensibly.
The following roads remain closed due to snow or ice.
- Goyts Lane, off A5004 near Buxton
- Rylah Hill, Palterton
- Back Lane, Youlgrave closed from junction with moor Lane to junction with Conksbury Lane
- Curbar Lane from its junction with Dukes Drive, The Hillock, Bar Road and Clodhall Lane to its junction with the A621/Sheffield Road
We also have roads closed due to flooding, these include:
- Breach Lane, Hatton

- Ingleby Road, Stanton by Bridge and Ingleby Lane
- Unnamed road between Main Street Ingelby to A514 Swarkstone Bridge (near John Thompson PH)

Take care if you are travelling on the roads and remember never to drive into flood water or through road closure signs which are there for your safety. Travelling conditions are potentially more dangerous today due to patches of freezing fog.
