Gritting services for Armagh businesses
The cathedral city of Armagh has schools, colleges, healthcare and council sites set among drumlins and orchard country, which hold frost in the hollows long after sunrise. Steep approaches around the city centre need extra attention on icy mornings.
Armagh is far enough inland that clear, still nights regularly bring frost. Precautionary gritting before dawn is the only reliable way to keep car parks and footpaths safe for early arrivals.
